This person had some odd restrictions on their bank account. It wasn't an issue until one day, he needed to take out lot of money all at once.

As a South Korean worker employed by an American company, this person has a few restrictions on their bank account. U/luther_williams shares that unlike American banks, he has a limit of how much money he can take from his account each day. It's not even very much money: only about $216 per day, which is around 250,000 won.

With the way inflation has bumped up prices in America, that can barely buy you a month's worth of groceries. There are a lot of times you need to take out that much money for big purchases, and it's pretty inconvenient of a bank to set such a small limit for their customers. How are you going to hold all of a person's money, and then tell them they can only have little bits of cash at a time?
