You can't "cash out" your balance.
At the time of sale you decide if the proceeds will go through paypal to your real money account or if it will go to whatever blizzard calls their currency.
You can transfer real money into Blizzard currency, but not the other way around unless it's done indirectly --> buy item on AH for blizz-bucks, sell on AH through paypal, incurring multiple middle-man cuts and increasing the risk involved.
This certainly puts an interesting spin on things, and not being able to directly cash out may help some with the 'suspension of reality' issues.
