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.

i used to work for a lettings agency and a surprising number of manchester tenants still pay in cash. some rent days, i could be walking to the bank with £40,000 or more in cash. it stops feeling like money when you have to count that much, just becomes annoying bits of coloured paper.
the teller gave me £900 instead of £500 once, when i drew on a cheque made out to cash. i took it straight back and she cried.
