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.

£3500To buy a car - if felt like the king when i arrived to view and pay up.
Then i discover that i have been done up like a kipper and there were so many faults with the car that it very nearly killed me when the prop shaft exited the floor of the car and entered the seating area while i was flying down the motorway. Luckily for me the AA helped finally kill the car by towing it without disconnecting the remains of the prop shaft - shredding the remains of the gear stick tunnel.
Suffice to say, the lovely Nigerian gent who sold me the car was never at his address again - the family that did live there were quite nice but they had been broken into recently... .
