66. I don't think it will be an issue

Regular banks operate under a different set of regulations then companies like Blackrock. If your money is in a checking account, you have unlimited access to it. Savings accounts appear to have some limit to the number of monthly withdrawals but, unless your savings account has a dollar amount limit on withdrawals (frankly not something I have ever seen. Check with your bank if you have a savings account), it shouldn't be an issue. Blackrock, on the other hand, is an investment company for people that are so rich that they can afford to risk significant amounts of money on what are frequently very risky investments, i.e. the 1%. Probably not either one of us.
