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.

I was 12...and my Grandad gave me 2 gold medallion things which I decided I wanted to sell to buy more video games or similar.
Found the best deal at a charming place in one of the rougher areas of Nottingham. Walked up there with my 5'1" mother and exchanged the medallions for £2000, given to me in fives and tens!
As we walked towards the bank we heard a smash of glass behing us and the same shop had just been broken into! We kept walking calmly to the bank only to realise they were closed for lunch so we sort of sat around in a coffee shop waiting to deposit it. We both felt a bit uneasy.
