6. Only $100,000? That’s just 10 bundles of 100 c-notes. There had to be a lot more than that for the transport/smuggling cost/effort to make sense. I wonder who has the rest of it?

7. Over a $100,000? Give me a fricking break!! Hell, there’s probably shipping containers full of counterfeit bills that originated in China. A $100,000? That doesn’t even payoff the customs agent.

10. @LocoBlancoSaltine – Yup, I was there, too. But what I saw was the original display of $10,000 gold notes, a hundred of ’em. I was underage but they’d let youngsters in accompanied by a parent (and under the eyes of a security guard or two) in order to go back and ogle all that gorgeous money. I’ll never forget it!

11. Uncle Al…I am not worthy…

    Seriously, two years ago I was working in downtown Vegas, I was in uniform with a coworker. We went by the million dollar display and the guards were watching us very closely. I mean SERIOUSLY! Sigh.
    Nowadays I bet they allow BLM fucks in all-black garments wearings masks to saddle up to the cool mill..

14. It would have advanced the narrative better if they allowed the bills to get in the hands of thugs on Chicago’s southside.

    Just think of how many fentanyl taking upstanding citizens could have been kneeled on by cops during black history month and the subsequent riots. Hell, they’d be passing out Nobel peace prizes like candy.

23. @Uncle Al(at 12:41 am): Many people don’t realize it, but U.S. Gold certificates were retired and (technically) made illegal to own after 1933 (not that the 10K ones were ever put in general circulation anyway). So the million bucks on display was not really a million bucks, although the collector value of a single 10K note can be from $2000-$3000 today, depending on condition.
