I think E*TRADE would make me wait a day or so for it to hit the bank



Takes about 3 days for a Etrade cash withdrawal to hit my local bank. I’m retired and live off retirement accounts so do this fairly often.

I have over 1 million in my 401k, however I’d rather die than lose it all at this point in my life.

Traps cost way less than a million.

I would call S's assistant butler and ask if he has any spare change.

There's no way to get $1m in cash or in your checking account in 24 hours unless it is already there. That limits you to stealing actual bundles of cash, or taking crypto from somebody that already has $1m in crypto.

Even hitting a business up with ransomware isn't going to get you the money within 24 hours. That's usually not paid until around a week in.

That kind of narrows it down between robbing a bank, or abducting a rich person with cyrpto and torturing him. You would probably need to withdraw $10k or so to hire a homeless person off the street to help carry out the plan. Basically dangle the money in front of him and tell him if you get away he gets the money. Scout's honor, etc.

Yes. Name a number that is difficult.

Banks keep as little cash on hand as possible. My local branch has no more than about 500k in the vault at any given time unless there's some special circumstance.

Weird that you got so many replies. This is the OT, after all

This could be easy if you know someone who knows an NBA player

The hibernia (now whitney) nearest to my office was tapped out by a 40k check on a friday afternoon.

I thought it would be funny...

It was not.

How does one go from habitual druggie jailbird / part-time bartender to suddenly claiming they can get their hands on $1 million all in less than a few years time?

Yes. Provided it was during the week. I would have a hard time on the weekends without access to banking.

or a home equity line of credit? I think SS is in South Bay and a shanty there is over 1M.

His wife’s parents. There’s no way a felon, ex-con, bartender could actually come up with that kind of money on their own without any help
