Neeeeever keep all yer eggs in one basket........:o)

Multiple sources of quick cash be it multiple banks, credits unions, safe deposit boxes, one of the little first alert fire file box in a gunsafe or the tried and true plan “B” .....under the dog house in a ball mason jar........ have a backup plan for cash folks.

We also keep some 24k solid gold necklace chains around as a jewelry store will 9 times out of 10 give you current spot price for selling that.

.....also there are private “bonded” high security storage places that will rent you a small safe deposit box for a reasonable fee where cold hard cash can be sequestered / squirreled away for a rainy day .

We made (albeit you can buy online) a few hollow bolts like these......

Mine have safety wire holes in the head, I put em on the frame of each vehicle , safety wire em and camo em with same color undercoat and mud etc. They can hold 5 tightly rolled “new” 100$ bills in each one. Ya want “new” bills as a drug dog will alert on “handled / used” cash possibly... Not that I mind showing the cop where I hide spare cash , I just do not want to be doing such on the side of a busy interstate in my street clothes.
