[quote=Ricechex]Partypup, Arraya and anyone else….
I am planning on getting my money out of the bank. Partypup, you recommend 10K if possible. Since currency denominations are up to $100 dollar bills only…this amounts to a lot of cash.
Where would you recommend? Also, what if I died? Do I send my beneficiary a treasure map to the house? X marks the spot kind of thing?[/quote]
Family legend in my tree is that my gr-grandfather hid cash in coffee cans in holes around the farm during the great depression. I don’t know if that is true, and isn’t really what I would do.
Every house has hidden cavities. I would probably find one of those, or create a false back in a cabinet or closet…that would make a nice w/e project. Worst case, get a coffee can and stash it in the attic under the insulation!
I really think you all are panicking for nothing, but I may take out a couple hundred this weekend just to hedge my bets. :oD
