<p>[QUOTE="almostgem, post: 4055734, member: 20875"]Living in South Florida, Cash is required in the case of Hurricanes. It's also nice to have on hand just in case it's needed to pay for services (landscaping, pool service) etc. Where the owners of such services would prefer to be paid that way. I have also been trough a time where my credit union was limiting withdrawals because at the time we were on strike and the bank was afraid of a run on cash. The credit union was affiliated with the company so they had reason to fear. I will say that an awful lot of members closed their accounts once the limits were lifted. The company and the credit union both eventually went out of business. It was about that time that I realized that I could not depend on the bank to do things in my best interest. It was also the time that the coin collection was really getting too big for a safe deposit box, and we bought a safe and always keep at least a couple if thousand in the safe along with lots of bullion (and Ammo too !)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
