#7 The cash has great “R” value for insulation.

240,000 bills is 1,032 inches or an 86 foot high stack of 100 bills! (almost 9 stories tall)

Better illustration: The Pallet is 100mm. She is sitting on a couch made of 25mm in 100s.

They just needed a few Swiss relatives to transport the cash.

...find record $24MILLION in cash

I would have quit and retired quite comfortably after the first $12 million.

Wouldn't that be great.

The sales man that put our pool in, as we were chatting, it turned out we knew a group of the same people.

I asked about a particularly flashy, outgoing gal and we were axchainging some stories aobut her. She was always in the waiting room with a bunch of us and she would come straight in from her botox injections.

Anyhow, my point is, I guess this sales guy worked in contracting before the pool gig and had done some work in their (palatial) home. He was a private/corporate pilot.

He said they had shoe boxes and bags of money stashed all over the house.

$24M in $100 bills is 240,000 bills.

The thickness of a single bill is 0.0043 inches.

240,000 bills is 1,032 inches or an 86 foot high stack of 100 bills! (almost 9 stories tall)

**************************************************************

When I worked at a bank central vault they didn't stack the money in one pile. They would strap 10 bundles of 100 notes each making a brick. Then 3 bricks in a tray with lid. They would then stack the in a locking cart that hold about 50 trays. So the height of the stack of bills would not be an issue here.

I saw a shipment from the feds one day. 20 dollars bills wrapped in plastic wrap on a full wooden pallet. They used a forklift to get it off the truck. Even after working around large amounts of money this still surprised me to
see.

I can't remember the amount but banks are limited on how much cash can be transported at a time. This might over that.
