Well, Pakistan does raise a flag. I'm not saying he's automatically a terrorist, maybe he owns a 7-Eleven and is taking some money home to his family.

It seems weird to me for a guy to be carrying that much cash what with cashier's checks and wire transfers being what they are, but I understand that Pakistan doesn't have all of the bank branches and technology that we have here in the states.

Pakistan has banks.They have cell phones...the Internet...TVs,etc.Although Pakistan isn't a rich country,it's not Bangladesh,either.

IMO,terrorism and drug money (Golden Crescent) are the two most likely explanations for this case.
