Really??

You have an answer that you're not sharing because you're afraid of prosecution?? Or aiding and abetting a criminal?

What a shame that we live in a world where we have to be so paranoid...

Disclosure Statement of non-terrorism/non-mafia/non-drug dealer related financial question:
She's the road manager for a band that is on tour in Europe. Promoters have paid down payments via EFT for each show, but the balance of the band's fees is paid in cash on the evening before the show out of actual ticket sales.

By the end of a 3 week tour, the cash piles up. I don't think it's safe.

I am a founder/silent partner in the record company that signed the band and is backing the tour. I would name the band, but because I use my actual name here, it would make it pretty easy to find out lots more about me and I'd prefer not to make that info public.

I would appreciate any advice you have if you feel more comfortable now, but I will try to understand if you still are a bit nervous providing it.
