Who kept Neil's money?


Val Kilmer kept his share of the money. Michael was killed while carrying his share. Where did Neil keep his money, because he wasn't carrying it on his way to the airport with Eady? Would Eady get to keep some of the money later?

I'm guessing he's got a vault or a safe in his house somewhere. It's likely he also has a couple of lockers or safety deposit boxes. Neil's "drop it and get out before the heat comes" mentality and lifestyle would likely have backups, but I doubt he was a "savings account" type. So, I'm thinking he had stashes around LA that he could come back and grab as needed.

They would have drop points or banks that accept their money on cents for the dollar in exchange for clean money in their accounts.

Jon Voights character kept it, laundered it, kept his share and sent the rest to Niels offshore account.

Since Niels is dead, who is going to get it?

In reality offshore account are not linked to relatives or biz partners unless set up this way. I.e if the account is inactive the value of said account will at some point be claimed by the bank. If the account was in the US the money would be transferred to a relative or be frozen by the federal gov. due to his crimes.
