    Well.. you could always stash it in a locker at the bus depot or train station. Still some risk, but not as much as keeping it in your house or burying it I'd say.
    There are risks no matter what you decide to do.

    Simple solution: never "store" more than you're willing to lose.

            Yeah, someone would have a hard time getting through my house without the neighbors hearing my dogs make quite a commotion (they have a doggie door, aren't friendly with strangers and are quite loud when one is present)

            I've got 3K stashed, never thought about the 1s and 5s thing. I need to break some bills

                  I keep $5k hidden. I consider it more of a "secret stash" from my wife, but I guess it could be used in emergencies.

                                  So, when are you guys having us over for dinner? Pay no attention to me bringing an empty suitcase and leaving with it full.

                                    i keep about $800 for emergencies

                                    Often times I wonder why
                                    There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                    When sickness comes I must decide:
                                    When feelings go, theres suicide.

                                            Peaches, out of old habits or being lazy cash is around in a vase. My husband laughs about it.

                                            Last week, it saved his ass. I didn?t pay a parking ticket and there was a knock on the door. They were going to take him to jail for a parking ticket (5.00 plus fines =106.00) that I didn?t pay. He called me on my cell wondering where the checkbooks were kept and I told him exact same place for years but it if you can?t find them, raid my vase.

                                            He told me that we saved 45.00 paying in cash and then got on me for not paying the parking ticket?

                                                  Well...."freezer cash" was not intended to overcome banking emergencies...it was more about not depositing it in the bank. We are not talking about a small stash here....from what I remember there was enough money in that freezer to buy most small islands!!!

                                                          This good friend of mine recently started going through a divorce. His soon to be former wife launched the divorce on him and he was clueless it was happening until it was too late. He kept 175-200k USD(!) in his safe at home and his wife made off with that. She cleaned out the checking acct (another 35k) and the savings acct (10k). She even took cash advances on all the credit cards to the max. All the direct debit charges from the mortgage to his FPL electric bill bounced due to NSF.

                                                          Another friend of mine had 12k taken from his house by his drug addict son in law during a visit.

                                                          If you plan on keeping cash as security, keep it secret and keep it safe from your family. Your more likely to have it taken by a family member then by a burglar.

                                                            My family members have a LOT more money than me - I'm not worried. Hell, most of them know where it is in case something happens to me.

                                                                        Did I say that's what I do? no.

                                                                        Follow along dude. Not everyone has a safe in their house. If you're curious as to what I do, I have a fireproof box for my legal documents, and I keep it unlocked so that any potential crook will look in and see there is no cash, and they'll hopefully be disinclined to make off with it.

                                                                        I don't keep a "stash" of cash. My ATM card works 24/7, so does my Visa, that's always been good enough for me.

                                                                          The folks who worry about losing it (to theft, fire, etc.) blow my mind. If you lose it, earn some more! We're balancing risks, here. Whatever risks you're protecting against by having cash around (the need to keep yourself or somebody else out of jail, the need to buy groceries during a banking emergency, the fear of running out of recreational chemicals at 3:00 AM, the sudden need to bribe a border guard and get the hell out of Dodge City, whatever), you just just balance those against the risk of losing the money. Figure out how much the risks will hurt if you don't have cash, figure out how much it would hurt to have the money stolen, factor in how likely you think those things are, and just keep your cash-on-hand to a sum that makes sense. If we're only talking a few days or weeks income for you, who gives a shit? There's more money where that came from, but the anal virginity your sister's dumbshit boy lost in the county lockup over the long weekend because you couldn't round up eleven hundred bucks at 3:00 AM, that's harder to get back.

                                                                          Just don't do what I do -- don't keep it in what your girlfriend learns to call "the ATM wallet."
