I agree with the other commenters that victim blaming isn’t called for.
Also, I think you severely discount how many other people in this world don’t trust banks. It might be worth actually asking the question about _why_ and what experiences they had which might make them distrust such a massive industry. Putting your money in a bank is far from a zero risk proposition. Hell, putting your assets in a safety deposit box is also risky[1].

- JohnFen 7y agoI don't trust banks. I only use them because there isn't really a system that I do trust that still allows me ready access to my money. That said, I don't keep all of my money in a bank. Nor do I keep it all in a tupperware container. I like to avoid accidentally creating honeypots.
