      There's not anything for the IRS to ask for if the DEA does civil asset forfeiture. The only justification needed to tie cash to drug trafficking is quantity or manner which it's being moved.
      Best thing to do is never move it.
      Cash is as good as illegal. Government can take it without any recourse.

    This reminds me of an "incident" that happened in Italy in the mid 2000s: an old lady passed away and the heirs found the equivalent of few 100.000s Euros stashed in the house; the problem was that all that money were in old Italian Liras (the currency Italy had before Euros) and the Italian Central Bank did setup a deadline (I don't remember exactly, but I think it was 2 years after the 2001 switch to Euro) to be able to convert any sum from Italian Liras to Euro; of course when that lady passed away, the deadline was waaay over, so all that money was no longer convertible and therefore useless.

    By NO MEANS WHATSOEVER deposit all that cash into a bank. The IRS could impose taxes on ALL OF IT as undeclared income along with penalties and estimated interest. So if this guy wants $500,000 his dad took a lifetime to save suddenly turn into $250,000, go ahead and deposit it.
    If he must deposit it, do something like a $8700 deposit at 10 different banks. Then deposit more cash at each bank every six months or so.
    Additionally, he should spend some time going through the notes. Old $100 bills with a star next to the serial number (star notes) could be worth $500 - $3000 depending on condition. Even common non-star notes from the 1930's - 1940's in excellent condition are worth at least twice their face value.

    My parents hoarded cash, too. Yes, they did have bank accounts, and during one of my visits with them, mom asked me to take her to the bank to cash her pension check. She stuffed all the money in her purse! I made up an excuse to talk to the VP of Accounts, explaining my concerns. She gave me her business card, explaining that they see this happen every day with the elderly. Usually, it’s a child, niece, nephew, or grandchild that begins ‘tapping’ them for money. Clearly, she could see that my mom wasn’t “all there”, and suggested a financial Power of Attorney. She advised automatic deposit of all pension and retirement funds. Then, place a limit on how much can be withdrawn in a single transaction, and a weekly limit, too. Anything over that amount would trigger a phone call to the person(s) holding Power of Attorney; in this case, my older sister and younger brother, as I lived across the country. I provided my older sister with the business card and a plan to protect pension and retirement funds moving forward.
    In the meantime, I ordered a safe and had it delivered to their house (I live across the country), and told these two siblings to store the cash in the safe. At this point, dad had died and mom was beginning to enter dementia. BTW - This was not a lockable cash box, but a legit, heavy, fire safe. Not only did they NOT put the cash in the safe, but one of my younger sisters began helping herself to the cash! She had actually begun helping herself to the cash when dad had gotten sick and became bedridden; however, when dad died, her behavior ramped up. When pension checks and Social Security checks arrived, she was there to drive mom to the bank to cash the checks. Nothing went into savings or checking, as my mom continued to walk out of the bank with a purse full of cash. Of course, it all vaporized. Finally, over two - yes, two - years later, my older sister got control of the money situation and everything was automatically deposited. By this time, the cash was long gone. Within six months of automatic pension check deposits, my younger sister and her husband had received a Notice of Foreclosure from their bank.
    What became of the safe? I found out later that it had remained in the garage, in its shipping container. I’m angry that not a single sibling living near our parent’s house (five of them) could take responsibility for safeguarding the cash. Yeah, you guessed it.....I am that one child who worked 2 jobs (sometimes 3) to put myself through college because our folks didn’t have any extra money for this “nonsense”. The money hoarding started shortly after child #10 got married. I feel I have totally failed in keeping a watchful eye on my parents, believing my siblings when they said they had things under control. BTW - When mom died, my brother contacted me, asking if he could take it to his house and use it. I will give my younger brother credit, though, for stepping in and taking care of our mother for the final 3 years of mom’s life, even knowing that there would be no financial gain.

    I hope at least he has a big safe and has it locked in that. I agree, there might be more in the backyard that you don't know about. Kind of strange that he doesn't want to just put it in the bank.

    My father passed and left me and my sister with a lil over 120k each. I already opened an IRA and put some aside there and bought an individual stock. what else should i do? i've been thinking about running my own food truck but want to know what else i can do

    I work in banking. Do NOT deposit this all at once, no matter what. The bank will be breathing down your neck for years after you break that 10k level. It’s called a SAR.
    You are better off sitting on it and spending it over time.

    People need to remember, the government is not on their side. Example, even when you inherent money, they want you to pay taxes on it. (Even thou the people you inherented it from already paid taxes on it when they earned it as income.)

    If I had for whatever reason had to store that much cash at my house, I would spend 10k+ and buy myself a top security fire safe bolted into the floor.

      It’s quite feasible to make 6 figures in passive income annually, I have made over $720k from May till now, with no funny strategies, i'm just basically getting guidance from a Broker that I found in a times magazine where she was featured, her name is Justina Irene Nevel, you can hit her up if you care to.
