Most banks require a minimum starting balance to begin, but once youâve got an account, managing money becomes much easier. But when one man tried to open an account at a Nebraska bank, tellers were startled with the amount he was ready to start with. The staff of the Pinnacle Bank in Lincoln was unsure how to respond to the visitor when he slapped a â1-million-dollar billâ on the counter and demanded to open a savings account. Not only do 1-million-dollar bills not exist, printed bills only max out at $10,000 â and even those bills stopped printing in the 1930s! Needless to say, the man left the bank without an account. The police are also looking for him, but not to punish him: Theyâre worried he might have been duped by a con artist! Everyone in Nebraska seems so niceâ¦
