You ever see a million in $100.00 bills?
I have, doesn't take up that much room. Have handled 10 million in $100.00 bills, several times, at the FED, testing CVCS sorters in the 1980's. 10 million is 100,000 $100.00 bills, 25 trays of 4000 bills in each tray. The 25 trays would be less than 27 square feet in size.
