I had to look it up because it's so bizarre. The explanation is even more bizarre.
>Charles was carrying his cash because his bank has few physical branches and he and his mother were in the process of moving and he didn’t want to lose his life savings in the move while he was in Cincinnati.
So open up a Chase, or Bank of America, or <insert bank here> account instead of risking someone just stealing your cash in a checked bag that you won't be watching for a few hours, much less airport security?. I've lost bags at the airlines before and had them sent to the wrong cities and such.
This. I can accept that carrying lots of cash is foolish because you might be robbed by a criminal. I can not accept the idea that carrying cash is foolish because you might be robbed by the government.
