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.

More like e-cash ...But I won some £3,000 at online slots about a year ago. Some of the more dodgy gambling operations routinely try to screw you of your winnings so I'm always a bit paranoid while waiting for the actual money to materialize. It went fine, though.
(On a side note, a few years back another place tried to screw me of a £500 winning by delaying payout infinitely. So I write a letter to the software provider, politely namedropping a few well known gambling discussion boards and hinting that being associated with crooks is probably bad for business. Money appeared next day. Ahh.. blackmail).
Apologies for being lengthy and missing the point :)
