what to do with the cash
just curious if anyone knows what you do with the cash? like i know the coins allow you to buy ammo health packs adam to refill your plasmid abilities but i havent found a way to turn the cash into coins and i know at the start you can see a message that sais how many coins equil the cash but like i said i have no idea how to change the cash into coins i have re-started my game on a new save thinking i must have missed something but so far still nothing

I think the way it works is 1 coin = 5 cash and vice versa. If you are not holding a weapon, you can see how much cash you have on the back of your left hand. When you pick up a wad of bills, it only adds 1 to the counter, but adds 5 when you pick up a coin. When you are near a vending machine and pull out a coin, you will see it drop by 5. If you have less than 5 total, you will not be able to pull out a coin until you collect more cash to equal at least 5. I don't think you'd ever be able to spend cash if you were down to your last 4.

It's a weird mechanic because it implies that some kind of magic conversion from cash to coin is happening in your backpack. Why have cash and coins instead of just coins? I guess only to make it feel like you are looting more by splitting them?
