In this video, we explore the challenges that many people face with the modern banking system. We'll delve into the reasons why this process can be so difficult and frustrating, and how it relates to the concept of owning gold and silver as a means of being your own bank.
We'll start by examining the current state of the banking system, and why banks are becoming increasingly resistant to allowing customers to withdraw large sums of cash. We'll also take a look at the historical context of this issue, and why it has become such a hot-button topic in recent years.
From there, we'll explore the benefits of owning physical gold and silver as a means of preserving wealth and protecting oneself against economic uncertainty. We'll discuss how these precious metals can be used as a store of value and a means of exchange, and why they are such a popular choice for those who wish to be their own bank.
Throughout the video, we'll hear from experts in the field, as well as individuals who have had personal experience with the struggles of withdrawing cash from their bank accounts. We'll also provide practical tips and advice for those who are interested in exploring alternative financial strategies, such as owning gold and silver, and becoming their own bank.
So if you're curious about the challenges of getting cash out of a bank, and want to learn more about the benefits of owning precious metals as a means of financial independence, then this video is for you. Join us as we explore this important and timely topic, and discover the power of being your own bank.

They’re not making a lot of money off the typical punter, so anything they have to do is just an extra cost for them. Unfortunately, the government really does care about money laundering, and has delegated the responsibility of tackling this to the banks. If they are not complying with AML rules, they get big fines, so at this point it does become worth their while to develop processes to try to prevent this. “But I’m not laundering money!” Well, until AI gets good enough for there to be zero false positives with minimal false negatives, there will always be these types of issues.

@@stephenparker5241and that’s not how AML works. The bank will need to have a defined set of policies for how they check they are not participating in money laundering. This includes analysis of transactions and overall behaviour of an account. If they are found in an audit (ie, by the government) to have lax policies or to not be implementing their own policies properly, they get big fines. So in this case the “guilt” is not about you making an illegal transaction, it’s about the banks not complying with AML rules
This is both concerning and frightening. Would they question several grand spent on a new kitchen? Seems the banks really don't like the 'ordinary man' thinking outside the box as to what do with his own money !
I gave my daughter a £5K gift when she bought her first house. The paperwork I had to fill in was ridiculous. Including a contract from her bank that I wasn't going to make a claim of ownership of her house.

Banks typically only go back 2-3 bank statements possibly 6 months for high LTV, plus 6 years credit history. if you want to borrow money its best to ease off PM for a while beforenhand .i buy most of my PM on credit card ( paid off in full each month) from a differemt provider so my bank doesnt know ehat im buying .

Hi Backyard Bullion! Another great video! Thanks! 😎
Very informative video, thank you for sharing.
I have bought hundreds silver coins from TD Canada Trust several times but this latest time, they refuse to deliver it or allow a family member to collect even though it's paid. This is a hassle for me as I can't collect it personally. They won't even return my emails. Why bother advertising precious metals for sale if they won't deliver?
My son's grandfather gave him a very large sum of money, towards a house. This freaked out the bank. They wanted to know where the grandfather got it from, and wanted assurances he had no claim to the property. So I'm guessing they don't like large sums of money going in and out, for anything, as they have the trouble of checking that a payment is actually for (in this case) another quantity of metal.

I should be able to spend their Bank credit anyway I want
I went into my bank for a loan awhile ago, stated reason, to buy gold, confusion reigned, for a few moments, then it wasn't a problem...... except the interest rate, which was unacceptable. Now that same bank keeps upping the loan offers, possibly on the basis of my banking turn over😂.
Woah big info here
I tend to buy G&S on a credit card and pay off in full every statement. I have a credit card from one bank and I have X2 bank accounts from different banking groups to the credit card. So far no one has questioned any of my purchases..........(although time will tell) I'm not too bothered about selling as I'm playing the long game with G&S however if I had to sell, it would be to a reputable dealer. I also keep all of my invoices. The only time id start to worry about G&S buying is when we are forced onto CBDC's. They could programme our money not to buy precious metals!! The banking system is under scrutiny at present due to the Farrage scandal, so now's a good time to buy and sell precious metals whilst they're feeling the heat. If they ever questioned my purchases I'd tell them that I identify as a pirate and it's my religion and I'd threaten them for discrimination against folks who identify as pirates lol.

I bought some gold a silver in 2014 and said to myself to keep buying more, which I didnt do. Anyway ive started again and Im stacking silver mostly and will add gold later. The plan is to stack for many years to come either for the kids or retirement. I will stick with britannia coins cause of the CGT legal tender. As im going to stack for years to come would it matter if i bought higher premium coins from time to time. I see a video the other to avoid premium coins at times. Would that matter if im holding them for 10 to 20 years? New to the channle and new to stacking.
I felt that don't buy untill your debt free.
Hey byb how do you get that angle with the camera?
Think your getting a tad paranoid my old chum. Take for example you go for a mortgage so you go to Nationwide but you bank with Royal bank and you might have accounts with other banks, the lender will look at your main bank where your income goes that’s about it, they may go back 3 months or 6 they will look at your income say 3/6 payslips maybe a p60 and a reference from your employer or your current bank, they will look at a credit reference agency . If you are 999 then that’s about it. Say you have just spent 30K on a car they will look at say your savings but if you have used other banking facilities to purchase gold and silver all you are is a coin collector. Your argument could apply to stamp collecting or paintings or antiques. Let’s not panic.
Tbh this is standard practice, the banks are checking more and more account transactions all the time, it’s getting more difficult all the time, and I have a feeling the banks will view high billions trading the same as gambling that it can go up or down. I have many clients refused for gambling small sums on the football at weekends

What the majority of people don’t understand is that a mortgage/ loan or any other financial product is that they are PRODUCTS not a necessity. They force people to contribute into the banking system to fund fractional reserve accounting wars and politically influence governments . In other words corrupt.The financial institutions just like governments would be insolvent . On that note the leeches and parasites need us for their survival . Rather strange that we’re made to feel privileged when one walks into a bank and withdraw our money, errr we’ll not legally our money as we’re misled to believe. Total and utter scammers .
Received 10oz silver Kookaburra yesterday. Very nice. Thanks, BYB. Would love a gold bar... look forward to Friday.
yay thoughts are this, you need a "medium", what I mean is this. you take the silver, exchange that into fiat, then you exchange that into crypto then you change the crypto back into fiat, where as the banks do not ask any questions when the funds are deposited from crypto exchanges. not really sure what you mean how the banks have any questions. then on that note, on this topic is look into Asia for holding your bullion. thing is, financial institutions have zero say where its a serious violation to infringe on your personal Bussiness. if you are buying n selling bullion then you don't need a mortgage. the financial system that you so trust, is the last party you want to even think about it.banks are better known as "3rd party risk" so on that, the banks have zero control since they do not have the authority. here in Canada we invested into BTC, we invested $1700.00, then cashed out $9800.00 n change. then we cashed out on Stellar-XLM for another $38,000.00 which then we sold everything on crypto exchanges which were deposited directly into our personal bank account. then the next day we went into our bank to withdraw everything. honestly your video is almost to mush of a headache. "credit Unions" are junk, best practice is this....."Challenger banks" fun part is just buy in cash, sell in cash. spend the cash. if you have a job. bank your paycheques then spend your cash. your video is biased to your country. you lost me when you mentioned "DO NOT BUY GOLD & SILVER". if anything you rambled the whole video, where you didn't actually know WTF you were talking about. I buy silver to hold my value of the dollar. that is it. it's not to financially gain money. a single ounce, to several ounces each from a reputable bullion store. the whole part about "rules and regulations" sure, its bunch of garble. have your bank call me. they can even call me for fraud and everything. I do not listen to my bank nor do I hold the government on a higher level. Justin Trudeau can suck it. n that's my rant.
Is there something missing about doing business with a company? If I buy a couch on Amazon why is that different than a gold coin at Atkinson's? I still pay legal taxes on both. Banks are nosy ...

With respect to banks it gets weirder and weirder. About three weeks ago a received an email from my mortgage intermediary. Shortly I will be receiving a questionnaire to verify my mortgage isn't used to finance illicit activities. My mortgage has been running unchanged for nearly two decades!!! I couldn't believe my eyes. If Bitcoin is adopted more and more and the volatility drops, then it will be an attractive alternative. Furthermore, if larger payments will be more and more difficult to process, money velocity will start to drop and will ultimately drop GDP.
As an American I can't understand this concept. I move large amounts of cash frequently no questions asked. Had my main account for almost 30 years.
I sell to family, their payments appear on my account along with same name surnames. Trades done with my local coin man also appear with his name, as with Chards and other legitimate suppliers when I make payments.

Its kind of not the banks. Its the government. Banks can get massive fines for this stuff even if they can prove they have a robust investigative framework in place.
Remember that once you give the bank your money, it is no longer your money. It belongs to the bank. Sure, you have a claim to retrieve money that is supposedly into your account, but try going to the bank and withdraw $2000. There is a good chance they will refuse and insist you give them a couple days to request such a withdrawal. And they might likely ask why you need the money. Remember, it's their money, and they believe they have the right to ask you what you are going to do with their money.
But a few bank employees caught me at a bullion dealer shop and in 2 months time they the bank closed my accounts and impounded my money
Makes a mockery of gold being a tier 1 asset. They dint want you knowing too much. When withdrawal they ask " so what are you doing with the money?"i watch the horror on there faces or the cheaky smile ,when i tell them im going to the strippers beacuse they dont take cards. Its non of their business what i actually do with my slavery tokens. Another is im hoing to the litto agent to buy some scratchy tickets to buy a job. A wise coment re yours and they told us at jewellers school at University you MUST keep records of where and how much you got your metals from. Otherwise the crown will confiscate it, they hate competition. Also they taught us it is illegal to melt legal tender and or that of the Commonwealth or a country where we have a peace treaty or allies with. It is deemed an act of WAR . Tread carefully here
Wow something I never considered. Luckily i don't have a current account with the bank I have a mortgage with. However it's got sweet fa to do with the bank if anyone can afford to buy any goods so long as they can pay off a mortgage. And people thought CBDCs was the enemy 😂

You dont need. A business bank account if you are a sole trader, although it does have advantages in fact 3/4 of self employed people dont have one . I would advise having a second bank account just used for the business to simplify tax returns though . Obviously a specific bank may have a term and condition stating they don't allow it , but it's not a legal requirement and most people don't bother .

I think in the US, there is very little records of buying and selling metals with an LCS. Some states like mine, only keep a record if over $10k in 48 hours. There is of course, a record for all online buying and selling. When I got my last mortgage, they did want 6 months of bank statements, but that was just to verify income and outgo habits. They did not question any transactions. Granted, this was about 10 years ago, so things may have changed by now? I do buy a steady 10oz bar each month online, but for larger buys, I always use my LCS. Same thing for selling (I have sold only twice. Once to pay the remainder of the wife's new car ($6k), and more recently for a family vacation ($9k) Here, we have to be mindful of putting the cash in the bank when selling large amounts of metals. Banks here file a SAR (Suspicious Activity Report) which can lead to the account being frozen while they (FINCEN) take a look at the account. For this reason, I always suggest folks have at least 2 accounts, (and at least 2-3 months of cash on hand) in case they ever have a problem with one, they can still eat until things are sorted out.
Sadly, banks have been given significant leeway under the Patriot Act (in the USA that is) and comparable laws throughout the west to turn away anyone for almost any reason. In the states I see this as an affront to Due Process (yes, this applies to corporations incorporated with the state). Until voters make themselves heard on the issue it will get worse before it gets better.
