It's simple. We put it in offshore accounts.

Do it in January and instead of being a guaranteed title match, it's a Ladder Match on the first RAW of the year for the 30th slot in the Rumble.

Reverse MitB, bro. Everyone starts out with a briefcase, and the winner is the first to lose theirs. King of the Money match The objective of the match is to hang the briefcase above the ring using a ladder after scoring a pinfall or submission victory over one of the opponents sending them into the penalty box for several minutes. Simple

The only people eligible to enter a MITB match should be people who’ve never won a world championship before.

Randomly, one of the briefcases when you try to cash it in you just get fired

The only people eligible to enter a MITB match should be people who’ve never won a world championship before. This is a really good idea because it reinforces the “Someone’s about to go to the next level” connotation that it kind of developed. I also agree with the “take it back to WrestleMania” sentiment; you got two nights now - one night mens, the other the women. And in general I’d say they need to be more creative. There’s a TON of hypotheticals they still haven’t breached. There’s been pages of ideas on threads here alone, so, yeah. Do ‘em.

It becomes the Mandy In The Bank and the winner gets a free 3 month subscription to Mandy’s site. Motivation has never been higher!

I just think you need to try different kinds of storylines with it. Imagine if for example a member of the Bloodline won it this year. It can be really interesting to see how that plays out with Roman and whoever won it.

Do one at WrestleMania and the other at Summer Slam.

Do it annually, keep the cash in stipulation as is, but just have a face win and call their shot in advance.
OR...off the top of my head...
It's been 15 years, let someone win and say in advance that they're going to main event Wrestlemania and then we have the months-long countdown like they wanted to do with Kennedy...Kennedy.
Maybe tie it in with one of the other gimmicked pay-per-views like forcing a champion to defend in Hell in a Cell. Or maybe at Elimination Chamber have someone call in advance that they're reserving the spot as the sixth entry.
Have a super unexpected lower-card talent win and say they're going to cash-in at the next year's Money in the Bank so that they'll get a year of bumped-up paydays and travel and guaranteed spots on the card so they can slowly rise into being a viable contender in 12 months.
Maybe a veteran or older talent wins it and loses a career-on-the-line match before they have a chance to cash it in, but they have the suitcase so they still have the contract for one more match and have it for the world title.
Rhea wins the Men's Money in the Bank.
A wrestler wins it, forgets it at the venue that they won it at - can't find it and then when the WWE returns to that venue, finds it and chooses to cash it in that same night so they don't lose it again.
A wrestler who wins the briefcase winds up winning the world title without having to cash it in, then when they lose it they attack the person who just beat them and cash it in to win it right back.
A wrestler loses the briefcase in a match where they have to defend it - then the person who beat them for it (a heel) cashes it in, but mid cash-in the original winner runs down and gets the pin as the heel never got around to amending the contract after winning it.
A cash-in at the Hall of Fame.
A cash-in during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (NBC Universal channels have covered it going back decades, so it's feasible).
That's ten right off the dome that haven't been done. I think there's still plenty of options unexplored, it's just Vince kept redundantly doing the same two over and over.

One thing I always wanted to see (and a good write off if the guy isn’t ready), just have the champ intentionally get himself DQ’d during the cash in and the former MITB holder gets a Ppv shot that he wins or loses

While not as "prestige", just make it a number one contender's Ladder Match with the winner getting a Title Show at the next PPV.

I have two ideas. I'll go with the least dramatic change first:
1. The briefcase also holds a bomb, with a timer that will end at an unknown time. The only way to disarm the bomb is to cash in your contract.
2. Instead of a briefcase… it’s a satchel.

Make it just like "Russo's Revenge" but use the briefcase instead of the world title.

It's fine. The concept works. Sometimes they choose the wrong person to win it but there is no need for dramatic changes.
Removing the Cash In is lunacy. That's what makes MITB unique. It keeps fans speculating thus getting interested in the holder. Without that it's just a lame #1 Contenders Match like we have 80 times a year.
And it doesn't need to go back to WrestleMania. WrestleMania doesn't need it and it doesn't need WrestleMania. It is one of the few gimmick matches you can build a PPV...oh excuse me, a PLE around. Hell it's already considered one of the WWE's big 5. It was arguably more important than Survivor Series until they added WarGames. There's no need to scrap it.

Stop teasing cash ins every week only to go "oh wait he never cashed in". Kills the big moment when it does finally happen.
I would like to see someone "call their shot" again.

Merge it with the Andre the Giant battle royal trophy and have the winner of the AGBR earn the right to challenge for any title at any time.

Someone steals the briefcase thinking they've stuck it to the MITB holder, but then the MITB holder just cashes in anyway (maybe using one of the briefcases at the merch table), because contract law just doesn't work like that.
