    Take a look at this:

    Also you can add weight to it with lead diving weights, that's the cheapest way to make it even heavier.


    Good luck.
    I just had a flashback of a friend trying to jokingly steal another friend's safe.. He had this little ten pound safe that he weighted with one of those compressed steel thing I thing that weights like 80 pounds.. Oh the hole it made in the floor...

    A lot of smoke shops sell cover up carrying items for weed, you could buy one of those and store it in a place where it looks normal. I had like 5 fake cans of Arizona tea filled with cash sitting in the fridge lol. Not even from dancing, just from saving up for college. Luckily no one I lived with liked Arizona tea. The top of the can screws off and is totally hollow on the inside. Best part is when you pick it up, it feels like it's filled with tea. But no das ma monaaayyyy.

    I used to hide my cigs inside a coat pocket.

    Although if its a nice jacket a burglar might take that too. I 2nd the tampon idea.

    I keep money in my house, and at a relative's house.

    My safe is fireproof and waterproof, but it's a "file cabinet" safe so it's small but it actually looks like a file cabinet. It's super heavy though and you can bolt it to the ground. I keep important files in there, passport, birth certificate etc and i put my money at the bottom of the safe in hundred dollar bills so it isn't visible. It's not one of those cheap metal file storage containers though, it's an actual safe.

    It's also in a hidden place, and there are two hand guns and 3 rifles in my house. The handguns are in my bedroom and the rifles are in the room where the safe is. The shotgun is loaded directly above the safe but would not be visible to an attacker "leading me" into the room to enter it. The shotgun is added protection in case they are just armed with a knife or something. The loaded handgun is not easily visible but is easily accessible by me during the route to my safe. And of course my man carries concealed so he usually has another loaded handgun on him in the house too.

    I'd get a safe for fire-proofing. Just imagine losing all your hard-earned cash to flames... ;( Like krystal.s said, a big enough safe can't be carried away by anyone, so that'll keep your money from both burglars and fires.

    Safety deposit box at bank!! Dangerous for you and your money to have that at home!
    Just use larger bills to cut down on space, the teller will usually happily exchange bills for you (as long as they're sorted into groups)

    That's pretty harsh. I read it a while ago, and I thought it was kind of cute.

    I think its the kind of comic that glamorizes stripping and makes it seem like a fun, cool, easy job that any one can do. House dad? Yeah right. House dad that takes you shopping? Yeah fuckin' right.

    I guess I should write my own comic and base it on the reality of the job, you know, seeing girls snort coke, dealing with asshole customers, the occasional pimps who come in and try to recruit you, the shitty managers and bouncers who are supposed to look out for you but don't.....

    As much as I am glad I started dancing I always tell people that this job isn't as glamorous as it seems, its hard work.

    Anyways, sorry to thread jack.... nothing else to add.

    I live in a student area prone to burglaries (3 months until we love out of the area yay!) they break in expecting 3 or more laptops, computers, cash, alcohol, ipods etc. But whilst we've been lucky so far, you never know. If i cant get to the bank for a couple of days i put my money in a closed make up bag behind other make up bags on my desk, theres all sorts of tan and cheap shit in the same box so it doesnt look very enticing.

    Ive also taped money to the bottom of my bin, then put a bin bag in it, then filled it with rubbish, no-one wants to go rooting through rubbish or expects anything to be in there.

    Similarly, with taping money to the inside bottom of a sharpie/used needle bin (UN-used obviously) but unless you stick your hand in there you dont know its not filled with used needles and who wants to steal someone else's medical waste!? And if ever questioned, you are diabetic, on a drug trial for something etc.

    I dunno, most of my places sound gross actually, Ive heard of putting money in sealed bags in a toilet cistern, but if it leaked, you're screwed. I hide all evidence of my being a dancer, shoes etc so anyone random (student house means male housemates occasionally bringing random chicks round) should have a sneaky look, theres nothing to suggest i might have quantities of money lying around.

    I mean they did have a set on a bad customer getting drunk and hurting her while security is distracted.. Let's play nice, I liked the comics and obviously it takes a lot of work (and it's free)

    ^^ Plus, it's a light-hearted COMIC, not a documentary.
    That's like calling the Sunday Funnies bullshit because they don't delve into issues like abortion and nuclear warfare. Yes, it's about stripping, but it's still a cute little internet comic obviously intended for people who are already in the industry.
    And besides, like yyyrrrttt said, it's the girl's first night at the club, and she already saw one of her coworkers get attacked by a customer. Even if the comic is a little on the "strip club fantasy" side, it doesn't completely ignore the rougher parts of the job.

    If you don't like it, don't read it. I enjoyed it, and appreciate the time and effort the creator puts in to this FREE internet comic.

    Anyway, I'm done threadjacking too. Back to the topic at hand.

    I don't read it. Like I said, it hurt my eyes. If you don't like my comment, don't read it but I'm still going to have my opinion on it Now we are back to the topic at hand.

    Concealed fire-proof safe in the attic . No burglar is going to go fucking around in the attic.

    Inside opaque cleaning-product bottles is another idea. No one wants to steal your bottle of 409 cleaner.

    I would worry that a junky might want used needles and break-ins are often done by junkies (or so I have heard).

    Ahhh, ru going to be living in a rough area? I suppose this only really works in areas like mine where there are a LOT of needle exchanges, literally like 3 within walking distance of my house. A lot of boys where i live take steriods so a sharpie bin in common in most houses. So its more off putting cause burglars have been beaten up when happened upon by the juiced up roider who lives there.

    Inside a cleaned out moisturiser tub maybe?

    My money is hidden in plain sight....its such a good spot that it took me a few weeks to remember where it was and find it again. lol
    Also, anyone walking into my home will likely figure I dont have any money anyway, cause my stuff is so cheap
    Plus I dont have any expensive electronics (except for a new galaxy tab that a client got me for my bday...
    its probably the single most expensive thing in my apartment right now actually..even my couch is cheaper than it is!)

    I always joke that if someone ever broke into my place to rob me, theyd probably feel bad and leave me some money instead.

    I spend my money on dining out, trips, living well...not so much on stuff.

    ^^^ good point ! Where 'total stranger' burglaries / robberies are concerned, the 'perception' that you have nothing of value is far more important than safes etc. to protect your valuables. Unfortunately, where dancers are concerned, there is a higher risk of being robbed / burglarized by someone you know ... who KNOWS you have a high income thus valuables. And if the dancer in question is a 'taxes optional' type, that potential robber / burglar also knows that the dancer's ability to report any such robbery / burglary to the police may be compromised ... since the second question they will ask is 'where did you get that money from in the first place' !
