Physical Cash Item

I'm mostly indifferent, leaning towards yes. A couple people have mentioned it already, but I also have used money in suitcases, envelopes, etc. On a large scale, more as a secondary person in business exchanges; but on a personal level, I have occasionally done it for small gifts. It feels really good immersion-wise. Having the potential of seeing the money I'm carrying and getting that direct encouragement to stash it out of the bank would be even nicer. "Out of sight, out of of mind" is one of my worst enemies. Although I've always practiced only carrying what I need... I'd love if my effort was more valuable. And simply, the reminder. I have forgotten that I was paid thousands for some of the civ jobs, and it always felt weird later when I realized how much was on me that was magically... un-robbable, in a way.

That's not to say I'm unafraid of the robbing uptick that is bound to happen... Because that does worry me, like many. Especially for player-run businesses. If this does go through, I would love to see an update with the tip systems. Whether that's something like tying the employee's name (not just CSN) to the bank statement that includes a tip (bank tip method) for easier manual payouts later, or adding a new tip method that can send tips directly to the employee's bank account using the register. This isn't necessarily to discourage use of security services (legal, gang, or MC) either; it's more for the fact of the economy being inflated compared to IRL. As well and in addition to... if suddenly half the work force (a guesstimate) needed security during business hours and after business hours for a bank run... not only would services potentially get run thin and be stuck in one place with minimal interaction at times, but things would feel very, erm... I don't know the correct word, but militia came to mind? Setup for aggression? Public community paranoia showing? Opportunities for unnecessary disrespects and wars? Strange organization for businesses? Excuse my failure of a brain on words for this part. Maybe someone else understands and has a more eloquent way to describe it.

My only other thought is to echo the no coins, or only quarters. My dyscalculia would be causing so much passive anxiety at all times, lol

You can't convince me that AP wouldn't love throwing quarters at people

In seriousness though, yea I agree with the consensus that coins would be too much, just stick with $1 increments if it's going to happen at all

I WANNA THROW BRICKS AT PEOPLE AND HAVE IT DO DAMAGE

I think what maybe you're trying to say is that the civilian side of the RP becomes far more militant and combative than it's intended to be? Thats how I pick up what you're describing.
