Don’t t be in a hurry to pull your money out of the bank yet
I’d recommend to leave it there for the moment , it’s safer there than having cash lying around the house or buried in a hole
Quick story , 35 years ago my uncle passed away and left a note in his will which read “ $7,000 cash buried in a plywood box under house near side trap door”
So my relatives found the box 2 foot underground after some frantic digging around
In the half rotted box was the $7000 cash rolled in about 15 old rusty benson and hedges tin cigarette flip trays
When opened the notes had rotted and perished beyond recognition due to moisture , mould and lots of insects , ants you name it
My Uncle hated banks !!
Unfortunately $7000 down the gurgler ( and that’s $7K back in the early 80’s )
Moral to the story “Don’t bury your money or it will bite everyone in the bum later”
Cheers
