“It's Friday afternoon and Joe is flying to Sydney.
He doesn't have enough money for a taxi to the
airport, and he's running late. He goes to the local
ATM and identifies himself. He specifies that he
wants $100 from his savings account. He'd like
the money in $20 notes so that he can give the
taxi driver the correct change. He doesn't want a
printed receipt, as he doesn't bother keeping track
of transactions in this account.”
