    I am thinking that this is either just bullshit by the Mirror, or someones trying to create a deception because theyre seriously NOT gonna do something that stupid after a meticulously planned heist like that.

    Dont hype their part up, the break in is the easy part, shifting the money is MUCH harder.

    The robbers were the only ones who were armed, it was quite an uneven fight.

    A similar thing happened here last year. They got £26 million but it was all useless. Who the fuck would want that much money anyway? Greedy bastards, I hope they all die.

    Seems a little harsh, and anyway, they wont get anywhere near that much.

    Say they got £50m, half of that is in new notes, which they cant use.

    So thats £25m, thats got to be split between 10 or more.

    So thats £2.5m, but you've got to launder it, which is going to cost probably £500k.

    So you've maybe, if you're lucky, you get £2m.

    They tried to deposit the money in a building society in Kent with the wrappers from the depot still around the bunches of notes?

    If they want to get caught that badly, why not just have a money fight in front of Scotland Yard?

    i hope they get away with it.
    the money won't be as difficult to get rid of as has been suggested but ...going around trying to bank it still in wrappers doesn't bode well.

    Even if its mostly in old notes they arent going to get much more than about £3m each. Which isnt a bad prize, risky though.

    Are you serious? They kidnapped a family and pointed guns at them, those type of people shouldnt get away with anything! :mad:

    Potentially, the enjoyment derived from that sort of sum far outweighs a brief period of displeasure for that family.

    I wouldn't. In my opinion, anyone who says that have trouble with their morals.

    Ah, Bullshit. Like they'll miss it. Stealing from a theif, at the end of the day.

    I say congratulations to them again. I hope they had somesort of Boat... and nipped 'cross the channel. What I would have done. I mean, the cash they got... it easily covers the cost of a boat bought before on a small loan or someshit.

    Probably something to do with our greedy capitalist government taking our labour for profit and all that "fuck the system" philosophy teh_gerbil seems to subsribe to.

    well yeh they're bits of paper but they have value, don't they. i do think it's strange how a piece of paper can have so much value but that's how it is.
