We'll probably all have to start carrying around $100 bills after inflation kicks in due to all the damn money being printed for stimulus this and stimulus that.

I remember reading about some guy that inherrited his parents depression era house when they died and he found hundreds of thousands of dollars in very large bills that are no longer in circulation and he was able to trade them in for current bills with the fed then deposit them in a bank. I also seem to remember that the guy was also fielding offers from money collectors too, so I may be wrong.
