I gotta ask, what was he doing with that kind of cash? Nobody carries $10k in cash on them unless they're up to something. First instinct was that it seems either stoopid or shady to me but I admit I don't know the whole story. Maybe there was a perfectly legitimate reason for it??????????????????????

I don't handle large sums of money. I hate it. I almost never have more than $50 or $60 on me.

A while back I had a check for about $1/4 mil that I was moving from one financial firm to another.
I told the wife what it was and asked the wife to mail it for me, she said OK.
I thought about it and asked, certified, right? She said "huh?
I said, you're gonna send that certified mail, right? she thought about it and said, I guess so ....
She was ready to send it off as regular mail. Can you imagine the sheet-storm it'd cause if it got lost or stolen? The tax implications, the hassle, it'd take years to clean it up if ever.
Gave me nightmares. Took too many years to accumulate that money, I couldn't imagine loosing it.
