What's in YOUR safe?

Do you keep a safe at home? If so, is it in a wall, or is it one of these smaller hotel-style ones you buy at Staples and keep in a closet?

I have one of the latter, a little larger than a hotel room safe though and keep it in a storage closet.

Currently it holds about $200 in USD, Euros, and Pounds along with my passport and Nexus card, and small jewelry pieces once owned by my grandparents.

Another safe.

I have one of those rectangular combination safes like this one. Passport, extra checks, birth certificate, my mother's engagement ring, etc. It's bolted to the wall in one of my closets.

Yes, I own a fairly large safe. I have one in my house and one in my office at work.

I have one, but it’s a tiny safe on the floor that I realized would be the first thing stolen if anyone broke into my house. I only keep sex toys in there now (I have a nosy housekeeper and nephews/nieces that visit).

R5, free the sex toys!

Why don’t you all provide your address and safe combinations as well? Unless you’re OP and have nothing worth taking, or R3, whose “safe” can be pried open with a screwdriver. Why buy a fireproof safe with a plastic dial or buttons? If you’re going to get a safe, pay a couple thousand dollars for a real one.

That's going to be fun when you drop dead some day and the lawyer handling your affairs does a live zoom opening so everyone is onboard with dividing up it's mysterious contents.

The only "safe" I have is really a metal combo fire proof lock box. It houses the most valuable thing in my house, an exact image of my hard drive. 20 years of digital work, all my personal data, pictures, video etc. Yes, I know, you can store things in the cloud, I do that too, that's backup number two, but it's very slow to download if need it al at once. Try downloading 10 terabytes of data and see what I mean.

I keep my tiara there, when I'm not wearing it. The scepter is in there, too.

I keep cookies and cakes in my safe so I don’t eat them until my diet is over.

Barack Obama’s birth certificate, ‘cheeky’ Polaroids of Lindsey Graham—and 5 strands of hair from Kim Jong-un’s pompadour.

I keep about $700, my birth certificate, deed to my house, spare keys, and a copy of my will in a fireproof safe behind a false panel in a closet.

I keep about 5,000 cash just behind some books. I live in a high security high-rise so no one gets robbed in these kind of places or I should say It's very rare with 24 hour security guards. I like having cash in case of a real emergency like an major earth quake where people may be bartering or you cant get money out of an atm and cell phone towers are down.

R14 - are you serious? That seems a bit risky.

by Anonymousreply 15February 17, 2021 10:39 AM

r14, I have the same thing, except it's sitting in a desk drawer in the home office. If the house burns, it burns.

Gold.

In a real emergency your cash would be valued as kindling.
