.Never underestimate the elderly!

The old lady handed her bank card to a bank teller and said, “I would like to withdraw $500.”
The female teller told her, “For withdrawals less than $5,000, please use the ATM.”
The old lady then asked, “Why?”
The teller irritably told her, “These are rules. Please leave if there is no other matter. There is a queue behind you.”
She then returned the card to the old lady.
The old lady remained silent… but then she returned the card to the teller and said, “Please help me withdraw all the money I have.”
The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and said to the old lady, “My apologies Granny, you have $3.5 million in your account and our bank does not have so much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come again tomorrow?”
The old lady then asked, “How much am I able to withdraw now?”
The teller told her, “Any amount up to $300,000”
The old lady then told the teller that she wanted to withdraw $300,000 from her account.
The teller did so quickly and handed it to the old lady respectfully.
The old lady kept $500 in her bag and asked the teller to deposit the balance of $299,500 back into her account.
Don't be difficult with old people... we can outwit the young and dumb.

Most of the old ladies I know would have taken the $299,500 to the bank next door!

Hi,
Glad I was not in the queue behind the old baggage.

Farmer went to the bank for a loan and was turned down.
That weekend he won the lottery, more than the loan amount.
Guess which bank he did not deposit the winnings in?

Anyone with 3.5 sitting in a transactional bank account is clearly an idiot.

Thank heavens Granny didn’t see it as an opportunity to pump $300k into the pokies.
