+1 to please tell at least one family member if you hide jewelry at home. My uncle did this with his mom's jewelry. When he did it took my dad YEARS to uncover all of the hiding places. One ring he found in a junky old box of screws he almost tossed out!

My mother use to hide jewelry in her home and then she got dementia and couldn't remember where she hid it. We searched and searched with no luck.

If you keep it in your home, please provide your address and a specific location in the home. For informational purposes of course.

Pp here. I think any bank safety deposit box would be fine.

Safety deposit box. When we were robbed, they came straight to the master bedroom dressers and closet.

Make sure you tell all relevant family members about this. My relative has done this, and I worry that if she gets sick or dies and the house is sold, that nobody will retrieve the valuables.


A friend's mom did that in baseboards somewhere - it was a serendipitous find.

OP. Its a large enough quantity that she is not considering hiding it at home

Hoping to get some meaningful responses on DCUM. In which bank do you keep your heirlooms?

Remember where they stored the gold watch in pulp fiction?

Someone posted an article link in another thread about how a man lost contents of his box and there is no protection. I am asking for my mom. I wouldn’t advice her to keep it at home then where. What do you all do?
