I first heard about people being hassled for carrying large amounts of cash on airline flights about 15 years ago.

This isn’t news.

LOL

Large amounts? $4700 isn’t a large amount. I need that much cash when I go visit my kids!

Seriously, I have been asked, and read on cards handed out on a flight from overseas, that you have to report any money exceeding $10,000. Still, I don’t understand why.

Either they’re jealous or they’re “casing” you, I always thought.
