    Why do people withdraw and hide their money instead of keeping in their bank?

    Favourite answer:

    Most people don't but I'm sure there are many reasons why people would do this. I can think of one good one - if someone gets SSI (supplemental security income which is a federal welfare program) they might want to hide resources. People on SSI aren't eligible if their resources are $2000 if single or $3000 if married.

    Another good reason - hiding assets from a spouse you are planning on divorcing.

    As for taxes - you pay taxes on income when it is received - not money you have in bank accounts unless you receive interest or dividends.
