Gold: Past, Present, and Future
in Other Investment Types ·
Sorry if this is a bit off-topic, but I didn't want to start a whole new thread just for this, and I figured the experts here would know the deal.
Is there actually a safe place to store physical gold?
Don't get me wrong—I’m not asking anyone to tell me where they hide their stash; I'm not that crazy. I'm more curious about whether things like a bank safety deposit box are even an option, or if there are legal limits on what you can hold. I've heard rumors that it's actually not allowed, but I can't find anything clear about it on any bank websites.
I realize a lot of people here don't trust the banking system, so my question might sound a bit silly to some. But honestly, I deal with attempted break-ins at my house every couple of years, so keeping everything under my roof just doesn't feel smart. I'd much rather have it tucked away somewhere else.
