God entrusted me with this enormously expensive penis

I once had to courier a recovered hard drive from london back to the states with all the online test scores for the semester of a major land grant university, 25,000+ students.....the stupid assisntant director did not do any backups for 6 months and decide to play with the raid array.....oh good times.

Don't complain: miniaturizing is a time-consuming, difficult process.

I had the keys to a building in July 2004 that had about $25,000,000 worth of cars inside of it...

Some of you may remember the pictures of the Enzo I posted during that time... LOL

A $10K diamond ring.

EDIT: Oh, wait, now that I think about it I had to take a $35K ultrasound machine to someone one time.

There are security precautions thankfully but in the wrong hands, someone could get A LOT of freakin' money.

I'll make you a deal. Wire me the money I'll buy Gold Bullion with it and disappear from public life.

After you go to jail I'll spend a lotta cash busting you out (SWAT style) you keep 90% of whats left and I get 10%, deal?

Chances of your death remain slim!

I regularly wheel around $100,000 instruments and disassemble $35,000 ones. I don't know what the cost of the test fixtures that I built ends up, but some are atleast $5000 in materials and would take 2 months minimum (assuming all parts are in hand and the machine shop isn't doing anything) to build, test, and install.

I got the joy of asking a Tek rep when they showed up with an $80k oscilloscope that had Windows embedded "What happens when it crashes?" (he didn't answer)

Once you start working around high end stuff, it loses it's luster real quick.

Most expensive item:

I was tasked with delivering a $60,000 necklace to a reception of some sort. Got paid $1000 for the 3 hours it took to drive it across L.A. county. (Fri. afternoon traffic sucks)

Most expensive car:

2003 Aston Martin Vanquish, MSRP $280,000+.

Most expensive anything: My company's 727's... do they count? Though they probably aren't worth as much as the Aston, sadly.

I bet it could be bought very cheap to the right buyer.

$40,000.00 in 20's. Carried it in one of those cartoon looking money sacks in the trunk of my VW Beetle (real one, not the current fake ones) from 1 bank branch to another bank branch.
