I am intrigued/confused by this because there is simply no advantage to cash. It is insecure, it is actually dangerous to have large quantities around and authorities are able to scan for it so you can't even hide it. I'd rather have a cashiers check any day of the week. If anything, cash is a pain in the ass. Not to mention that large sums of cash indicate illegal or illicit activity.

Or someone who works their ass off and gets paid well.......it took 5 min in my bank to get 9k. Not all cash = drug dealer or chop shop owner.

Who is going to scan my house and what tool will they use exactly ?
