    A lot of this question really hinges around one question. What do I have to tell the government?

    Do I get this as a prize? A gift? An inheritance? Income? Magical Genie appearance? Do I have to launder it? Am I going to get audited?

      It’s a lot harder to explain bundles of cash. Remove any identifying marking on the gold and claim it as marine salvage.

        Except I dont own a boat, scuba gear and cant provide a lick of evidence that its marine salvage if even the most basic question is asked.

        Its a lot easier to gradually introduce cash into my life without generating a paper trail.

          So rent a boat and scuba gear and putter around the coast of Florida for a few days.

          Buying groceries with cash is nice and all, but you will never put a dent in that much money doing it that way.
