large sums of cash/trust issue
this is kind of hypothetical.
scenario is you are living with a roomate that you don't know very well but for only a month or so. you are in a tight space such as a hotel. you know your roomate but you don't REALLY know him. you are living in an area that isn't necessarily riddled with crime but a place that you don't feel comfortable with 100% of the time. situation: he tells you that he is going out for the night, this typically means he won't be back till' real late. you get home and have made a nice score playing WAR/GO FISH and have 18K laying across your bed since you don't expect him to be home for hours. the problem is its late saturday night and the bank is closed. where do you put the money? next scenario: he walks in early and see's 18K and like the good guy you think he is he congratulates you on your win and gets ready for bed. now what? where do you put that kind of money away with him in the room w/o him knowing about it? do you sleep with a jacket on and keep the money in your jacket?

Put it in the pockets of some jeans, then fold them up and put them in the bottom of a drawer.
If the roomate already saw it, sleep with it on your person. Tomorrow, go to office depot and spend $200 on a small safe so this doesnt happen again.

Re: large sums of cash/trust issue
i hope its not so hypothetical for your sake...
you should probably find that safe thread from a little ways back and lookup one there so you don't have to deal with this all the time...in the meantime, go make $982,000 more and you won't have to worry about what to do with it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] (but seriously, some sort of container in an out of the way place is about the best you can do for now...)

Re: large sums of cash/trust issue
Going and getting a hotel room is a very good idea (hey, you just won eighteen thousand friggin dollars, treat yourself).
If I only somewhat trusted my roommate, I definitely wouldn't be sleeping with the money on my person (assuming that I'm sleeping at home). 18k is nice, but it's not worth a hole in your head. -Diplomat

Re: large sums of cash/trust issue
If you need to hide stuff, put it in an "obvious" place. For example, make a large wad/roll, wrap it in plastic VERY well, and put in a bottle of tomato sauce or peanut butter. Another good spot is mixed in with your dirty clothes, preferably underwear or socks. Empty out a smoke detector and putting the dummy detector in the ceiling works well too. EDIT: I just realized that you said "in a hotel". I was assuming you meant in a small apt.
If the roomate sees the cash then put it in your sock and sleep in your socks. I know this sucks, but its better than losing it.
