So, how does an American terrorist get paid and maintain a lifestyle? By splitting the loot from all of the bank and armored car robberies, evidently, such as the Weather Underground and Black Liberation Army's attempt in the 1981 Brinks robbery (Also featuring Tupac's step-father,
Mutulu Shakur.)

And this one has a special 9/11 twist regarding Brinks guard, Joe Trombino.
At 3:55 pm, Brink's guards Peter Paige and Joe Trombino emerged from the mall carrying bags of money. As they loaded the money into the truck, the robbers stormed out of their van and attacked. One fired two shotgun blasts into the van's bulletproof windshield, while another opened fire with an M16 rifle. Paige was hit multiple times and killed instantly. Trombino was able to fire a single shot from his handgun, but was struck in the shoulder and arm by several rounds, nearly severing his arm from his body. The criminals grabbed $1.6 million in cash, got back in their van, and fled the scene.
Trombino survived his injuries, and continued to work for the Brink's company for the next 20 years; he was killed at age 68, while making a Brink's delivery in the September 11 attacks.
