What about a World Bank where you can deposit money from the agency safe and earn interest. It would be great to earn something on the money sitting in an agency safe.

I like this idea. however, I would require a minimum deposit. Maybe this would encourage a detective to save up for a rainy day, staash it away, and have access to it in the future.

This has been suggested beore, and there are some things that give me pause about the idea.

The first is this: If we did allow the account to be transfered between detectives, after retiring, how would we keep people from exploiting that? I mean, what would stop somebody from creating a detective, putting their starting cash in the bank, retiring, starting another detective, adding the starting cash to the account, then repeating the process 20 times before finally creating the detective who will keep all the cash?

Maybe you should make it so only people with over 100,000 experience can use the bank.

The Interest account I was suggesting was realy only found at the Agency and withdrawing or depositing was no different then who can take money from the safe now a director of that agency.

I like the idea of a bank for detectives money in general as well but I can see there could be problems.

Thanks for responding to the suggestion Ben.

If it was only open to subscribers, then it could not easily be abused.

I think it could be a nice feature for agencies. But I dont think it should be open to detectives who retired and created another detective.
One of the things that makes us be very carefull with guessing is the fact that if you retire you loose everything.
Your name, skills, cloths and money.
If you could go back and get your money after retirment, you will have less reasons to be carefull or to visit shady.

But using it as bank for agencies. And make it accessable from all cities seems like a good idea.
I cant think of reasons against it right now.

I definitely think it should be a subscriber only thing. Another limiting factor could be experience.

I do think the most important reason to have a bank should be the gaining of interest and to stow away money in a savings account. Money you won't spend on booze, a snazzy outfit and bribes.

I personally think that when you have a super experienced detective that accidentally retires, you should be able to take something to your next life. I am not talking about those detectives that are less then 2 months old and loose everything. But those people that spent 10 months building a ddetective. We had an accident like that happen in tafkadd.

I don't think it should be for agencies. It should be a personal bank account.
