Not robbed, not losing it at the gas station or in a hotel, not the IRS or why the seller wanted cash, or anything else.
It was cops sopping me me with cash, on my way to buy machinery, and them taking it because even though I had a trailer, even though I had the listing, even though I'm in a related business with licenses and EIN's and business bank accounts and all sorts of credentials.... we allow that.
