Oh dear! Please tell me that there are not retirees out there, headed south, down the interstates, schlepping suitcases full of cash, across all those state lines for immortal porpoises or whatever. Oh dear! Oh my! Please tell them not to do that.

All kidding aside. Carrying around large amounts of cash is not smart and could be really dangerous. Trudy and BobKat are right. FDIC insured accounts are where some people like to stash cash. Look at the FDIC website for more info.
