Perhaps if we concentrate on using this checklist, our thoughts will create the reality :) I have seen much longer ones - this is pretty succinct.

The Day of Your Appointment Things To Do
1. Make sure you know where you are going. Arrive early so you can “get yourself together, take a deep breath”. Do not loiter. If you are too early, stay SECURELY in the general area but not in the bank parking lot!
2. Remember to get in and get the EXCHANGE done, there a lot of other people behind you in line so be thoughtful of their time as well. You will have time for questions at your second appointment with your new Private Banker/Wealth Manager.
3. Be discrete, be professional, and be alert and aware of your surroundings. BREATHE! Seriously consider hiring security to accompany you to your appointment or bring a trusted friend.
4. Collect business cards from everyone or take their name and phone numbers as well as the location of their regular branch office.
5. Read and Sign the NDA. If it is simple and states you cannot tell anyone except your spouse, lawyer, or CPA (These are the people that need to know how you came about your money for tax purposes) how you came about all of your new found wealth, sign it and move forward with your exchange. Be prepared to uphold it! If you break the terms, you could lose your new found wealth. If the NDA is more complex and you are not comfortable with it, simply let them know you would like to explore your options with another banking institution. They may or may not waive the NDA. REMEMBER TO GET A COPY OF THE NDA IF YOU SIGNED IT.
The Day of Your Appointment Things NOT To Do
Do not demand anything while at the bank or act like a lunatic, you will be escorted out.
Remember the Golden Rule “Treat others the way you wish to be Treated”!!!
Items to Bring to the EXCHANGE Appointment (Check off the list as you put all items needed
together to make sure you remember everything)

account with the bank you will be exchanging with or for another form of ID
Power of Attorney Paperwork (If you are exchanging for someone else)
A pad, pen to take notes, calculator
Receipts for all currency purchased or gifting letter if they were a gift in case they are needed (Do not

cashier’s check (Company name) in order to pay them off
Have your TOD designees (Transferable on Death) full legal names, phone numbers, addresses and

TOD designations per account (Wife/Husband, Children, Grandchildren, Nieces/Nephews, etc.)

to be Payable to
Decide in advance if you will be requesting cash for “Pocket Money” before hand and how much. DO
NOT get more than $9,500 unless you would like Uncle Sam to visit you. Also remember the more you
take with you, the bigger the target you are for thieves! BE SMART!!! Do you have a safe to store cash
in????
