they just happened to send Marty 100s, they could have sent him either 20s or 50s.


ok so, early in the show they said that the Marty/Bruce business was handling 10% of the cartels laundering

So must we conclude that his 10% of the job happens to consist of all 100s, whereas the other laundering operations deal with the non-100s?

Not at all.... we've only seen one tiny shipment that Marty received after his business was destroyed. We have no idea what type of denominations he was receiving prior to all this shit happening, I would assume it was a combination of the bills. Also, if one company with like 6 employees is handling the laundering for 10% of the cartel, it's a small ass fucking cartel lol.

I'm not sure why I think this, but as I was watching the show I remember feeling like he received only 100s. If you insist he DIDN'T get only 100s, then that was the root of the miscommunication.

He probably did on the Ozark shipment receive only 100s. We have no idea what his company received prior, but it's logical to assume it would have been varied denominations, especially if they handled such a large amount of this cartel washing.

Logical reason for the 100s would be that it's easier to move them and easier for Marty to safely hide a smaller amount of bills in a new location.

Once he's established and can handle a higher quantity of bills, I'm sure they'd send him 20s and 50s. Once again though, it's a show and it doesn't take anything away from it for me. The real cartel doesn't deal in only 100s, but they could send stacks of 100s to Marty for his entire life and it would be a small % of their 100s.

I hate this phone, was on comp before, so much easier to type

I'm not trying to insinuate that anything would be "taken away" from the show. The business is presented with a lot of complexity and it just begs the audience to invest a lot of thought into following what is going on.

I just personally wanted to understand the whole business as well as I could. If I believe that the $50million they dropped off at the end was all 100s (which you may not believe, which is fine) then there is still some aspect to the business I'm not that clear on.
