You have to be one kind of stupid to casually travel with that much cash and a whole 'nother kind of stupid to tell the person you're sitting next to that you're doing so.

Civil people don't care, and would wish the person success in their business endeavor. You're civil, aren't you? Or were we just caught thinking with that side of the brain again? Contrary to popular belief, there are in general perfectly reasonable people out there to talk business with in transit.

  Upvote me if you think you would spend the entire flight thinking of a way to pocket $1000.

  Here's the thing, though. It's not the civil people you have to worry about. It's the bad apple. Just like you shouldn't walk down an alley in a bad part of town wearing a suit. Sure, most times you'd have no issue... but it only takes one time to ruin your life forever.

On board a flight sounds like the worst possible place to mug someone, IMHO.

  You certainly have to wait for the right moment away from the airport, but people have done much more for much less than $100k

Like perhaps the weekly takings of any number of small businesses? It woukd be odd, but i dont see it as strange for people to wind up on planes with that sort of cash. Maybe they are just in a hurry and didnt get to the bank after work and plan to make the weekly deposit after the flight. And dont forget that, at least for some people, 100k is chunk change. Maybe they are heading to a big poker tournament with other 0.1%ers.

Being stupid is not a crime. Having money is not a crime. Taking money that is not yours is a crime.

  Best to just get a private jet to take you at that point... what is a few more grand to save you the TSA hassle if you want to fly like a rich person you might as well go all the way.

    100k for a work-truck isn't rich people money. It's grind it out small business owner money. Maybe still a millionaire but private plane money is ... a lot.
