That quote from the 1998 movie, The Big Lebowski<\/strong><\/a> always cracks me up. Perhaps, because it’s one of the funniest movies of the late 20th century.<\/p>\n

Also, because the quote is perfectly usable when one expects a large amount of money and it doesn’t arrive regardless of any inquiries and attempts to locate it.<\/p>\n

I’ve been muttering this quote – where’s the money, Lebowski<\/em> – since a sale was finalized on Sedo. The amount involved did not justify waiting for a check in the mail, so I changed the payment method to “wire” instead.<\/p>\n

Sedo is very prompt with delivering the funds, no question about that. But normally, it takes 2 days maximum for domestic wires to hit one’s bank account.<\/p>\n

In this case, I was muttering “where’s the money, Lebowski” for the better part of the week.<\/p>\n

Finally, I decided to call my bank and I was told that the routing number for “ACH” wires is different from that of regular wires. In fact, without that proper routing number money will never hit your account.<\/p>\n

So next time, before you start mumbling to yourself and others “where’s the money, Lebowski” – pick up the phone and call your bank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
