Bank? BANK?

That means you can access it only about 50 hours out of the 168 hours in a
week, or less than 1/3rd of the time. You probably can't drain more than
$500 from your account via an ATM machine.


Credit card. Many people have $5000 to $25 000 available on credit card
then just pay back the money out of the bank to pay it off when it's
convenient later in week or whatnot.

You can't use a credit card at all places but still it allows for
emergency flexibility.
