Thanks so much for your reply! I would be afraid to keep too much at home but it definitely wouldn’t hurt to keep some. I had heard horror stories of banks refusing to give a person cash and that seemed illegal to me. I’m glad to hear it isn’t true. I keep telling myself to leave the stock where it is and I hate to remove any of it because if you do it can’t grow but if the government gets it you still don’t have it. :-)
I have a small fireproof safe but it would be easy for somebody to carry it off. We have a larger gun safe that bolts to the floor but it’s not fireproof. My house is an older farm house built in the early 50’s and fire always worries me. I will take a look at your link. I remember my grandfather hiding his valuables in tin coffee cans under the house. LOL A lot of people did that after the depression. I guess I could always lock the little fireproof safe up in the big safe.

A thief will look for a regular safe, however they probably wouldn’t look into your lettuce in the fridge. Stop thinking of regular safes, find safes that aren’t regular safes, like the “lettuce” safe or the container of “antiperspirant” safe or the on the wall “electrical outlet” safe.
I had an electric outlet safe in my closet in a house I owned years ago. I also had a can safe. Do click on the link I sent and that will give you ideas about where to “store” stuff.
