I think this has already been posted.
Fun fact, banks no longer are required to carry any cash reserves on hand. So if you, say, go to your bank and ask to empty your account and for them
to denominate it in $100.00 bills, they may not even have the cash on hand, nor are they required to have the cash on hand.
You can still have it transfer to another bank, or possibly wait for them to acquire the cash, but it makes the idea of a run on the bank near
impossible, as the vaults have largely already been emptied of cash.
