That's so true. The other advice reads like security through obscurity, once the secret is blown (and there are no secrets if there is more than one person involved) the security is too.

Bad choice of words perhaps. I really meant hide it out of reach, not hide it out of sight. Good point though. Actually hiding assets is a terrible form of protection (just as in computing security through obscurity is a terrible means of security). EDIT: Looks like jacquesm can type faster than I :-/

  Hey, all I have is a typing diploma and a driving license, both were money well spent and I use them every day. It's not a whole lot of formal education but I get by ;)

  Wow, I never realized to link the computer concept with the finance aspect.
