Well see, I understand that pulling out a wad of $500s might excite you, but such bills are of little interest to the 99.9 percent of us hoi polloi. And while I would enjoy seeing a $3 bill, and a $2.37 bill, I'm willing not to whine about the U.S. Treasury, The Bureau of Engraving and Printing, to be more precise, not printing up any for me to enjoy.
As far as $500, those would be far more useful to criminals and people who wish to compensate for ...certain
lackings by pulling out gold money clips of large bills.
We don't wanna cater to those
Let's say you want to buy an ounce of gold, that would cost some $1270 at your local coin shop. Two $500s and some more vs. 13 $100s. Pay by credit card? They won't take it (risk of chargebacks), and even if they did, that would be 3% MOAR you would have to pay.
Your coin shop doesn't trust you? And you honestly can't be bothered to carry 13 bills instead of 5?
How often do you do this, buy ounces of gold from your coin shop? like, once a day, or more often?
Can you write them a fucking check, or did you previously screw them?
You seriously can't carry an extra (what do 8 bills weigh, anyhow? less than an ounce?)? How will you carry that z of gold?!
You're not entitled to have whatever bills you feel. I want $3 bills, and yet I haven't even petitioned my government to print them. Can you imagine?
TL;DR: It's not all about you, Snowflake. Make do with hundreds, you'll live.
Of course I'll make do. Always have.
Try paying with a check at your coin shop. There are other legitimate businesses that take cash too. If I ran a coin shop, or sold gold, or ran a pawn shop, I would not take credit cards or checks.
I'm not sure you have thought this through enough to understand that LARGE denomination bank notes mean a little more freedom.
Keep thinking, Snowflake.
>There are other legitimate businesses that take cash too.
If by that you mean "take only cash," and we're talking about prices which will make $100 bills impractical due to bulk (so, like, >$10 grand), name one.
And no, reupping on product doesn't fall under "legitimate businesses."
So no, no $3 bills for me, no $1million bills for Trump & no $500 for you.
Life's hard, Honeybunch, lrn 2 make do.
