I wonder what the maximum here is. Cash is harder to spend than it used to be and in addition you’d be at risk that the actual people facilitating the payment delivery would be your biggest risk since it would be very likely they would turn around later and rob/murder you.
There’s probably some optimal “suitcase full of cash” number that basically optimizes for spendability and risk.
Why would they murder you when you have access to invaluable data they can get from you at any time? If anything they might blackmail you to do future investigations for cheaper, but why would they mess with a good thing? We're talking about people who can basically print money.
