It deals with an ATM receipt left in the ATM (presumably by mistake) which has an account balance of $99,864,731!!!! A couple of things came to mind when I was forwarded this email:
- Wow - I wish I had that much in my checking account!
- Why does someone have that much in their checking account? Does that mean their investment accounts are many multiples of that?
- Why would someone with that much money in the account even print a receipt?!
Anyway if you haven't seen it elsewhere - enjoy!
Several banks allow you to use your checking account as a home loan offset account, meaning some people will run up a high balance. Though as you say you should not be leaving the receipt lying around.
