True, and like the guy said, we are too wealthy to notice or care about it.

Yea exactly, bank robberies have massively dropped.
Don‘t think you’d even be able to walk out with 5 digit figures at a random German bank, unless you go for the major cash handling ones… which have the appropriate security anyway.
Also that cash is also not in the open. Deposits get dropped in a safe, the safe cannot just be accessed by the random clerks working.
So you either have to call in a withdrawal to make them have cash on hand, or rob them exactly when some business is depositing their weekly cash proceedings..
And that‘s in Germany, which is still massive on cash compared to virtually all our neighbours.
But really, bank robberies were hardly worth it when you could get away with 6 figures. They definetely aren’t worth it now.
You‘ll do better just robbing any random store used by the elderly and taking the 1k they‘ll have in their till in the late afternoon I reckon.
Plus much more crime is credit card/fraud based. Much lower risk, much lower punishments.
To just rob a random small town bank, you’d have to be extreeeeemely desperate and dumb.

[It had been happening continuously for years] (https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/scotiabank-to-close-rural-branches-1.6315342).
No one said they were all gone. Just they continuously close rural branches. It's not hard to guess why, but it is dreadful for some.

People bought her book to support her family.

Wait, it’s cause they went cashless… Why did they have so many robberies anyway? I thought their country was doing everything we’re doing wrong, right. Should we be having even more bank robberies then? This is getting confusing. No wonder we can’t fix America.

Why would you do this? I get it that she needed to take a break and get help, OK, but then just, well, go away and get help. Hire someone to manage to accounts or ma age them yourself.
My God, all of these people are insane for thinking this was OK.

There was fund-raising for her funeral, so she certainly received something

This is my point. I didn't realise other countries still had bank robberies. I thought it was a TV trope.

I've seen police give tickets to ambulance drivers (I knew the driver too).

It does so long as you don't buy it intending to suicide, policies will often exclude suicide for 1-2 years as well.

I thought insurance didn't pay out for suicides? Maybe that's just a popular plot device and has little basis in reality that I just accepted as truth.... but I'm drunk on Reddit so I won't bother researching...

Especially Danske Bank which loves white washing Russian money, blaming teenagers, getting lots of welfare from the government etc. You know if a bank has a country name in it like Deutsche bank, bank of America or danske bank. MOVE ON OR GET OUT!
