Big notes pack more punch in a smaller space. Big dollar bills are used by the rich to get their pesos out of the country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that is the reason that the US discontinued the $1000. dollar bill. DUH..smaller bills are harder to smuggle than the larger ones. There is a place in Vegas that has 4 of the $1000 dollar bills on display. Can't remember the name of the casino. Trust me though. The dealers will soon find a way to get their profits from plastic.

They will still charge you overseas fees. Banks will get their money one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
