This is a question The most cash I've ever carried

There'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.

Zimbabwe...
Place of ridiculous inflation. I went there at Easter and the highest denomination was $50,000. You may think that's a lot, but at the time it was worth roughly 14p. (It would be worth half that now, but they've since printed $100,000 notes so all is ok!).

So I was going out with my friend one night and naturally we wanted to buy a few beers. 20 notes in right trouser pocket, 20 in left, had to wear a jacket as well and stuff every pocket of that with notes. I felt rich at first, but by the end it was a pain in the arse having to carry around a whole rainforest just for a couple of beers.
