    It's not a competition about who can out do the amount of money in the OP :P

    It was about €10,000 back in "the good days" to buy a car.

    8,500 would be most when I was paying for a car. Cash frightens me, I remember checking my pockets for the envelope constantly. Didn't feel comfortable until I handed it over.

    I think it was around a thousand pounds back in the day when we had real money. ;) I won it on the horses.

    At the time I had some much cash floating around that when I lost over £300. I never noticed, only when I found it lying under a table did I even remember it.

    Those were the days! I might add this was long before the Celtic Tiger.

    On the other hand the most money I ever handled was when my company asked me to pick up a cheque and lodge it for them. I nearly fainted when I saw how much it was for. £750,000. As I was filling in the lodgement slip the man beside did a massive double take when he glanced over at me. A couple of days later I lodged another cheque for over £250,000. In effect I lodged a million quid into the bank.

    If only it was mine!

    €14,000 for a bike, it wasn't as big a wad of cash as I'd hoped. There's rarely any reason to carry much cash. I'm not sure I'd like to be carrying around more than a few hundred as I frequently lose things.

    Carried 4000 dollars cash to the states last year, walking through Brooklyn after I landed knocked a few years off my life expectancy due to stress!!

    65k after the last weekend before Christmas around 2004. Working in a mobile phone store. The other guy walking with me had roughly the same. We sold over 700 phones in one day!

    Over 10,000 loads of times but it was never mine as I worked with a lot of cash, always handed over every penny, honestly.

    Same as a few, €10,000 for a car and thought someone was going to mug me any minute.

    That was 2008 and sold the car the following year for €3000 (and was lucky to get it) :(

    $25,000 to $30,000 a week in my last job in Haiti. Doesn't help when your driver tells you that someone was shot outside the bank the week before. Became used to it after a while.

    Used to get seriously paranoid about the money as I was ultimately responsible for it.
