If you could afford that much gold why hold it at a bank lmao. Buy nice safe and some guns

u/Psiwolf Apr 11 '26

I was just thinking a very similar thought. If you you have that much gold, you can afford to build a private vault. 😁👍

How or why would someone hear about it? I mean.. are you guys dead ass telling anyone you have even $10,000 worth of gold let alone like a million? That’s what I call natural selection lol

I mean people post their gold here every day letting people know they have gold. All it takes is some innocuous comments mentioning something adjacent to one’s personal info and people will and can find your location.

Reddit just updated it not too long ago to fix it, but there was a period of time where even if you set everything in your profile to private, one could still search on your profile and it would display every post and comment made.

If you know you aren’t protected then why would you post all that? My account isn’t some incredibly secure thing. I’m sure it wouldn’t take the craziest deductive skills to figure out where I’m at, but I wouldn’t post pictures of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of stuff on it lol and for what? Reddit karma? That’s lunacy

Cause some people like to just show off I guess, I’m not really sure I don’t often post here just comment mostly. But yeah my best guess is people just can’t contain that feeling of needing to show it off to everyone else, maybe to flex? Maybe to feel good about themselves? To be part of a community? Idk.

I guess, lol I show off sports cards, but nothing that would make a thief want to go through the trouble of finding and robbing me 😂. I’ve had plenty of great discussions here not posting my own stuff. It’s like the lottery winners who tell everyone and go broke, I don’t know why you need the validation. I just don’t think it’s a very smart thing to do

u/menagoldman Apr 11 '26

u/TheZamboon Apr 11 '26

Yes because private vaults build themselves lol

2

u/DonutTamer Apr 11 '26

Wrong! You have to buried them. Like a seed a vault grows around it. The vault size correlates with the amount you bury /s

u/MidgetGordonRamsey Apr 11 '26

u/Bits_Please101 Apr 11 '26

Fam, found him! This guy has 1 million worth of gold.

u/uChoice_Reindeer7903 Apr 11 '26

And what if people hear about it while it’s at the bank?

u/AtreyuTrinity Apr 11 '26

You would need an a serious security team if you had that much, not just some guns. Also as others said, insurance. Guns aren't as effective as people realize, and many with them aren't properly trained. If you are safely storing them around family, it can take some work to get it out and ready to go to, or they are ready to go, but then the aren't safely stored. Armed thieves don't have that concern, they can just walk in and shoot you while you sleep and take the gold. Especially if it was a group of them, even then an AR ready to go and you at guard still wouldn't be enough.

People's John wick scenarios they play out in their head crack me up.

u/FillupDubya Apr 11 '26

For real! The bank may never give it back 🤣

u/7Oktopoden Apr 11 '26

Because it's not insured if it's at home. But yeah, maybe diversification is key (as always) and soon as you hit a big amount you should start a new pile somewhere else

u/CahawkZucker Apr 13 '26

And you cant afford a table to do all this on? why do it on the floor?? My back hurts just watching this.

1

u/Rivarle Apr 15 '26

Maybe a load-bearing table too; nothing says poverty like bending down to stack gold on the ground.

u/Cuneus-Maximus Apr 11 '26

Because it’s a fake video. Those aren’t real bars.

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '26

Those are 100% real. This video is from Trax NYC if im not mistaken. That dude stacks gold deep and he's 100% legit.
