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.

Used to stay in a hotel at the side of Euston Railway station. Won £2000 on a slot machine in the casino at Russell Square and walked back to the hotel with it in my pocket - too tight to get a taxi instead of a 10 minute walk.
Every time I passed someone nearly shat myself. Then I had to have it on me all week - Tuesday to Friday - 'cos a) didn't trust the hotel 'safe' and b) certainly didn't dare leave it in the room.
