I'm assuming that #5 is limited by the space in your pockets/purse and would only trigger if and only if you owe a debt on something to someone within your visual range. Additionally they would need to speak to you verbally what exact amount you need to trigger the pocket filling.

Thus; you could not likely pull out amounts even exceeding a few hundred thousand without some really clever planning.

I'm also assuming you will never simply pull a check out of your pocket, this superpower is CASH ONLY, which burdens you with the advantages and disadvantages of cash.

But like, if you never hand over the cash, don't you still owe them the money, and then you just repeat until want? You could arbitrate or even actually owe a great debt in the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars, roll up in some cargo shorts, and then just effectively print money double fisting your shorts.

It would seem you didn't understand my message.

No; you could not exploit it in this way. If you do not intend to pay a person then you do not need the money and have no debt you are seeking to pay. The generated cash would simply vanish from your pocket.

That cash is leaving your pocket one way or another; either by willing to pay somebody and actually doing it or it vanishing.

Nothing about your original message implies the intent of the power holder, nor does the original prompt imply the intent of the power holder. Someone can both have a debt owed by them to someone in their immediate vicinity and also have no intention of paying that debt. If I owe a friend $100, does my power require me to state or intend on paying that debt? Or is the requirement fulfilled because I have an immediate debt to pay and I'm fishing in my pocket for "change"? All of the listed powers are either easily exploitable or can be rules-lawyered to mediocrity.
