Cant think of any reason why i would have to use it and 25k wont get you far in case of war or whatever so i might as well bring it to the bank one of these days.

Its not a bad idea to have 2-3 months worth of living expenses laying around just in case. (what if some big company thinks you owe them moeny and your bank accounts are frozen?Waht if that happens by mistake and takes a while to clear it up?).
