I agree-I think he survived and lived very quietly so as not to attract undue attention-MrT5 was convinced he went to Canada to live-and most people knew then how to launder small bills, like the ones Cooper specified he would get-it is much harder now to launder even small bills unless you own a business or know a drug cartel capo...
But enough to live on for the rest of his life?
I don't think so.
BTW, why a clip on tie?
I'd think that a Boeing engineer would know how to tie a necktie.
Unless they wore them for safety reasons.
Like getting caught in moving machinery.
