Gotta Spare 500?

Who knew? I should've but didn't.

That amounts to $651, a lot of moules and frites, or a pretty decent Bordeaux.

Update: It's the bill of choice for criminals and the UK isn't having it anymore.

From AOL News (AOL is still around?)...

"If you're not a drug smuggler, terrorist or money launderer, you'll probably never handle a 500-euro note. Law enforcers call these elusive high-denomination bills -- each worth about $630 -- "bin Ladens": They know they exist, but normally it's only the bad guys who see them.

And if you live in Britain, your chances of ever seeing one just got even slimmer.
