<prompt> Human: I have always wondered how the wealthy store their cash. Because a bank will only protect their money for up to 100k back in the day and now 250k.so what happens when they have more than 500k in cash?also where do they keep it so it earns something instead of just dwindling to inflation; from what i understand inflation right now is higher than the interest rate being paid at the bank which is max at 1  <response>: they invest in property, and the stock market. The vast majority of their wealth is in these types of vehicles. Like 90.Cash is spread around different accounts.
