The most cash I've ever carriedThere's nothing like carrying large amounts of cash to make yourself feel simultaneously like a lottery winner and an obvious target.
A friend went to buy a car for ten grand, panicked and stuffed it down his pants for safety. It was all a bit smelly by the time he got there and he had to search around for some of it...
Tell us the story behind the most cash you've ever carried.

Stock CashWhen i was at uni, i worked for my brother in law at a firm carrying stock exchange warrants around town to give to the various companies they were trading with. As part of my job i had to do banking at the reserve bank in Sydney...usual amounts were knocking around anywhere from $200,000 to about $48 million...anyways, there i go into the bank to deposit a couple of mill and i forgot to carry the 2 somewhere and buggered up the amount by $500,000...the teller picked it up (fortunately!) and we corrected the mistake...oh how we laughed!.
Another time i went to withdraw $10,000 from the bank and i had a broken finger and couldnt sign my authorisation....i still managed to get the dosh mind. Made a good story when i consistently showed them my bent finger to prove it.
