Do you own a safe or firebox?

We have an alarm system so I think the chances of a couple of guys dragging this safe out while the alarm is blaring is remote.

 

Not really sure the point of this thread now that I ponder it.

 

This is one of the reasons why I own one of the last CRT projection HDTVs ever made.  130 pound TV without handles FTW

I guess the solution would be to get the safe bolted down or do a hidden in wall/floor safe.

 

I always wanted one behind a painting just like in the movies.

 

I put mine in the attic.  Who is going to pull the steps down, climb up there, then find it and get it out of the house?

 

I kept 5-10K cash in it back in the day, with passports, and other docs.

 

Now it's just other docs....

 

Buying a house, remodeling, buying an engagement ring, and planning a wedding will really take it out of your savings.

We do have a safe, but don't really have any documents in it, except passports. Social Security cards, birth certs etc... can just be re-ordered. The truly irreplaceable things are in it, such as wedding photos, a golden bracelet I bought my wife before we were married, pictures of my son when he was born, first day at school etc...

I have a gun sized safe.  I had my contractor anchor bolt it to my concrete slab.  In addition to the anchor bolts, because I have seen these pull out, I had him epoxy them into the concrete as well. 

 

What I have in it, it's a wonder that it doesn't fall through the slab!

    • Kind of where I'm at on this also. I think he has the potential to be an all pro caliber guard if he can come back 100%. He's more mauler than quick. Hunt is making 20m per, Moton is making 22m. Moton is a better RT than Icky is a LT so I think the pay comp would probably be about the same there. I don't see Icky as a 28m per season LT. He'll be low 20s and as an elite guard, i think he'd be within a couple mill of that. 
    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
