what's odd in the $5k debate here is $5k ain't that much money any more. i don't mean that like i'm a baller, i mean that like $5k will barely get you a decent used car these days. fuck, go to any guitar shop and it's loaded, i mean loaded, with $5k guitars.
but more importantly, if $5k is the red flag amount to start getting suspicious, we need to adjust that. i'd think closer to $50k cash and clenched butt cheeks
would be the benchmark suspicious character level.
