$30,000 in cash from their home
30k$ at their own home? Wife is a lawyer/paralegal? This is getting interesting.
Anyone care to speculate what would be the use of 30k$ to be kept at home? AFAIK nobody in the family was running a cash-based small business. I know people occasionally keeping much more than that at home, but they are in the cash-intensive business not involving Bitcoins.
Edit: E.g. I used to know a woman real estate agent who used to keep way over 100k$ in small bills very close to herself at all times. Her specialty was buying highly-appreciated (by value) but decrepit (by condition) real estate from alcoholics and other addicts.
What would be the business model requiring to keep 30k$ in cash at home? I don't care if legal or illegal. Please give your guesses.
The only thing I can think of is buying and selling large quantities of Bitcoin. That is kind of strange but not unheard of entirely. I used to have an uncle (he died 30 years ago) that lived through bank failures a couple of times. He didn't trust banks. He kept all of his money hidden in a metal box somewhere in the woods behind his house. When he died several of my relatives destroyed the land behind the house looking for the box and never found it. That's a rare case but who hates banks more than Bitcoiners?
