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.

Mr Whippy.One summer I was delivering icecream to various sweet shops, garages and corner shops. Some of the accounts were cash, and I'd collect £50 here, £100 there. One shop was stocking up for the Whitsun BH, and they ordered half a van full. £6000+, most of it in £1 coins. In carrier bags. The next shop had the rest, and this time it was in £20s, £4K+. In a carrier bag.
In my courier days, I carried a bearer cheque (no name, just the amount and signature) for £129,000. Only found out when the recieving bank opened the envelope.
