    I've pulled that trick on my mom several times. She's still waiting for her liquor store.

    Guy has $450k in cash and needs to make change--that's fantastic.

    And what kind of moron walks around with that kind of scratch, besides a drug dealer.

    Kevin Nickson of the Sheriffs Office said there is no reason to suspect that the large sum of money may have been associated with an illegal activity such as a drug deal.

    Anybody who tools around with 450k in cash bills deserves whatever happens as a result. Criminy.

    I wouldn't say he deserves to have his money stolen, but stupid is as stupid does.
