Quote History Quoted:
Same as a bank, anything $10k and over is suspect. I mean, you can legally do it, but you are going to be detained, you better have proof the money is legal, they may seize it. Shit, there are people who have had large amounts of cash seized when flying domestically.
To "them", why didn't the person just wire the money!?! Well, because they must be doing something illegal... Same as the people who get "asset forfeiture" because they get pulled over with $23k in cash when they are driving to another State to buy a used vehicle.
Pretty sure Regan did this, war on drugs and what not. Though, it may have been Carter. I recall news stories and even my Grandfather (who worked at a bank) in Miami talking about people showing up to deposit millions in cash at a bank.

Is it illegal to take money out of the US? Or a certain amount? Same as a bank, anything $10k and over is suspect.

For reasons I prefer not to have to rehash I had a flagged passport for a very long time and was subject to incredibly intense inspection, interrogations, detainment and occasionally even imprisonment every time I crossed the US border. They did not give a flying fuck when I had ~$9k in $100s. They did not even bother to count it. I sincerely believe CBP only goes after very large cash amounts, like if they see a massive stack. However they are straight up insane in thinking everything drugs even when it clearly is not. Most the drones at ports of entry only have one script, even if you are citizen they will ask you the kind of questions designed to damn visa holders on administrative violations. The most hilarious time was when CBPO thought he could deny me citizen entry to US. Yes he found out he was wrong.
