I think when my account reaches $100k I'm going to walk in and demand they close my account and pay me in cash.

They can't refuse that can they? I want a manager to count it out!

Additional downside, you'd have to look out for men in black suits following you around -- the FBI and other such agencies pay attention to large cash withdrawals like that... But at the same time, if you could get $100k in $20's, you could seriously go swimming in your cash, which would make an awesome story (just watch out for paper cuts)
