There is zero obligation to inform anyone what you do with your money if it's been legally declared & taxed. When the bank asks you what you do then honestly answer your occupation as it's listed on your tax return, and they can fill out their cash transaction report (CTR).
If the police want to ask you then you still don't have an obligation to answer unless they are filing charges, and then you bring in an attorney to answer on your behalf.
Perhaps you like to leave it sitting on park benches for homeless people to find, or driving down the highway and throwing it out the window. Maybe you bury it in coffee cans in the back yard. Just don't destroy (burn, shred, ect) as that's a crime.
Altering your transaction history to try and avoid triggering a CTR is called structuring, and that's a felony by itself.
Just shut the fuck up and let an attorney handle your responses if there's charges. If no charges then you don't have to respond. When they tell you an honest man has nothing to fear, just smile and ask if they're detaining you or are you free to go. Then leave; otherwise STFU.
