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.

Filthy Lucre14.5K in 500 Euro notes, in a money belt (cor don't those things get smelly?). We had to smuggle it out to Italy (can't take more than 10K because of laundering regs) to pay a lawyer and an estate agent. Being Italy they all insist on cash - and the real sting in the tail - buyers have to pay estate agents anywhere between 2.5 and 4% of the house price for the priviledge of being shown round. Thanks for that.
