freakyflygirl 0 #1 October 1, 2003 So my boss comes to me today and asks me to run an "emergency deposit" to the bank. I grabbed the pouch walked a few blocks to the bank, not really giving much thought to what exactly was in there. Walked past several questionable people, smoking, the pouch just under my arm. When I got to the counter, gave the deposits to the teller......almost $7 mil in deposits (checks, not cash ) First I was kinda freaked that I had so "carelessly" carried that much $$$ on the street, then it dawned on me my how much I was getting paid . Does he know how many jumps that could buy??????? How many rigs?????? Too bad it wasn't cash I would ran off and bought everyone I know a new rig!!! I think it's time to to ask for a raise....lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fast 0 #9 October 1, 2003 Best I can do is about 180 thousand of 20s. I worked IT in a bank, and every now and then the manager needed an observer for counting the cash. (I was a bonded employee because I was responsible for locking the building at the end of the day, so I got to go in the vault ~D Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me.

fasterfaller 0 #14 October 1, 2003 Largest check written to me was for close to 5 million for the sale of some land I owned in north Scottsdale . The most cash I have ever carried was close to 325,000 that I took to a car dealer that had a car I wanted , the other guy was financing and I had cash so I won . The car was a 360 F-1 .

jfields 0 #15 October 1, 2003 Me, not much. BUT... I'm sure Spectre230 has handled tens of millions in cash, all the time. Probably on secret black ops jumping duffel bags of cash out of 747's in HALO jumps over insurgent rebels we were funding at the time, before fighting his way out to his secret helicopter that he flew out low and fast over hostile territory using nightvision goggles.

kmcguffee 0 #16 October 1, 2003 Was involved in a seizure of drug money that totaled about $300,000 in small bills. I carried half of it to the bank with another guy to have it counted. It filled four large trash bags. It would have been easy to take some. The guys we seized it from didn't even know how much money was there.

Dumpster 0 #18 October 1, 2003 Most cash I've ever had in hand, that was mine, has been about $23,000.00. And it wasn't earmarked for anthing - Just put it in the bank and paid bills.

turtlespeed 220 #20 October 1, 2003 I used to work the window on the USS Yellowstone's post office doing money orders. Both the other tellers were out sick and I had to work payday by myself. I can still remember the amount of close out - $493,762.29. I had to count it like 6 times to make sure it was right.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aviatrr 0 #21 October 1, 2003 Well, I didn't hold the bills in my hand exactly....but I had a briefcase for about 12 hours with a bit over $600k in it. It was for the sale of an airplane(this was the final payment, he had already paid a 50% deposit), and the buyer was told he needed to pay for the aircraft with certified funds when I delivered it.....so he brought cash.. I was pretty nervous the whole time, and kept my Glock in a shoulder holster until I handed it over to the boss the next morning. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFKING 4 #25 October 1, 2003 $50,000 in cash, in two suitcases, for two days. No, it wasn't mine. No, it wasn't legal. No, I didn't sleep a wink for 48 hours. It was hardly worth the $200 I made for holding it....and, looking back, probably one of the dumbest things I've ever done. I *think* I've gotten smarter in the last 20 years.
