I see that New York “money manager to the stars” was arrested yesterday in Las Vegas for violating bail. Dana Giachetto is charged with theft of $6,000,000 and misappropriation of $20,000,000.
When arrested he had $4,000 in $5 and $10 bills, around 80 airline tickets worth about $44,000 and first class airline tickets to Rome for himself and his girlfriend. (Authorities found him "with the help of his girlfriend.)
The daily newspaper has broadened my knowledge today. I hadn’t thought of carrying a thick wad of airline tickets convertible to cash in order to get around the heat that carrying large quantities of cash generates.
