    I know there's a topic already on this, but they didn't post the complete details. :p
    In the largest cash seizure in Mexican history, authorities confiscated $206 million in U.S. currency from a band of methamphetamine producers headquartered in a ritzy neighborhood here, officials said today. The cash seized was mostly in U.S. $100 bills and weighed at least 4,500 pounds. It was five times the amount seized in all of 2006.

    I would transfer it to jelly beans and charge people a nickle to guess how many beans in the pile.

    I would think that nearly all of it is real; drug dealing is extremely lucrative.
