Most safes are fireproof, but depending on how the fire was started, fires can reach temperatures that would destroy most consumer-grade safes. Also, MOST fires, regardless of the how they started get hot enough to heat the safe and the internal contents get destroyed because the safe is so hot. Sure the safe will make it out, but it becomes a tiny oven that reaches 1000+ Farenheit. Money won't last too long in those temperatures.
well that puts inflation somewhere around 3% than. see? wells fargo, and washington mutual. i also have to deal with the company accounts w/ bank one a shitload. i dunno why you guys say wells fargo sucks, its been gold for the past year since i started using it. only issue is that the fucking credit card auto-pay won't work. meh, no big deal though. their online setup is by far the best out of the ones I've seen
same with me. I hate that place, they think i steal my dads checks and they will refuse to deposit my money sometimes. Its total bullshit.
Okay, either your broke or you've got $10,000 in a safe in your room. Either way you should put your money into a high interest savings account, like at ING Direct, where it can actually earn meaningful interest. (That goes for the rest of you, too.)
