    You are kind of wrong on how hot a house fire can be. After 15 yrs on a local fire department I have seen a lot of gold and silver fully melted. I have seen rifle barrels melted. One thing we did learn about this subject is to keep it as much as possible off the ground, maybe 2 ft. A true fire safe is only good for 4 hours before it starts acting like a oven.

    • @2is1gold
      @2is1gold  4 місяці тому +15

      Yeah, I could have elaborated on that. I think I have in the past. Worst case, though, the metal content is still there. I hadn’t heard 2’ before. I have a few about 6” off for venting with an added assumption that a basement is going to fill with water in a fire.

    Once you have stood on high ground in Napa Valley overlooking entire subdivisions laid to waste can you understand the power of mother nature. Unfortunately I have had to insurance adjust home after home after home where every molecular mass on a piece of property was reduced to ash burnt 4x over. Time after time the same story was told, California National Guard knocked on our door, 'you have 60 seconds to grab whatever you can' and was whisked away in the back of a 6x6. It is absolutely horrifying what a wildfire can do, truly biblical.

    I found this tip somewhere regarding extending the fire protection in your safe. Put in a can of water, whatever size you want, and cover the opening on top with painters tape. Water boils at 100 centigrade at seal level (212 F). If the temp in the safe hits that, the tape blows off from the boiling water and so you have a continuous mist of water vapor inside the safe. This will hold the internal temperature inside the safe steady until the water completely evaporates. Or so I am told. Comments welcome.

    Milwaukee M18 portable power adapters with a couple of 6ah batteries for each cannot be overlooked. Seagate 5TB portable HDs for all of the important digital items as well as scanned documents you mentioned. All fit nicely in the AL briefcase. It's light, easy to pick up with one hand and lockable. The ducats in tubes, loose fiat, etc. all fit nicely in it and weighs under 30#.
    Primary & a few mags on the PC. The secondary, PC with mags is a bit heavy but for good reason--LV IV Special Threat & the blowout kit under the front plate, the Ops Core with ears on it with the NVDs is also light. Milwaukee Packout units are available in clear tops as well & they work well for a plethora of reasons and are inconspicuous.

      I made a point to stack 100s as a back up fund for any and all things. Always had it for whatever reason. I’ve recently added a fat stack of 20s as any cause of a banking crisis could require needs for smaller bills. What do we see now? “We only take 20s and under”. Well, I think I’m covered if I have the 20s and the 100s are for larger needs. I don’t see the need for a stockpile of smaller denominations after that. If u can’t break change, I simply grab more goods to even it out.

This mix will get under any radar and keep good relationships with any retail type. Everyone and his sister has 100s, and it's totally annoying. If you need more, you might be a bit paranoid.

    My buddy lost his house to a fire 2 months ago. Manufactured home on his family ranch went up and within 15 minutes the entire structure was gone. He had several thousand dollars cash and his wife's family's jewelry buried 2 feet or so about 20-ish feet away, and lost everything in it. I'm not sure what the container was, but at 20ft away and 2ft under ground, who would've ever thought THAT wouldn't have been enough? Cash carbonized to essentially trash which isn't all that surprising (although yes, you can send the scraps to the bank and the Fed will replace some non-100 percentage), but the heirloom gold jewelry melted beyond recovery - that was shocking. No 2 house fires are the same and can absolutely burn hotter than people think. Don't assume that a fire-rated safe will protect everything in pristine condition... most especially especially if it's indoors, at a centralized location with lots of "fuel" around it that can prolong the blaze beyond the "1200 deg for 90-minutes" (or whatever the rating is). It might "survive" inside the safe but still be damaged beyond real value, or it might just get destroyed anyway. Cautionary tales are everywhere.

    Nine years ago, my youngest son ran into our room at 2 in the morning and yelled the house was on fire, which it was. I quickly put on some jeans and boots to go outside and try to contain the fire in the roof of the garage with a garden hose. It was pointless. My oldest son was the smart one. He grabbed everyone's wallet and all the car keys on the way out. The house was destroyed mostly by heat, smoke, and water from the fire fighters. Only about 5% of the house was actually burned up. My large gun safe held up well, although it was not directly in the fire. The closest flame was about 2 feet away in the ceiling above the safe. I learned you can lose 30 years worth of stuff in 5 hours. We were all fine and had insurance to cover almost everything. Never thought something like that would ever happen to me.

    I wonder if a TL30 or TL30x6 bolted to the foundation would survive a powerful tornado?…they can range from 1200-5000lb depending on the size…pelican cases or fireproof / waterproof cases within the TL30 is super prudent it will keep OUT the smoke and water from a fire being put out or from storm flooding. I love discussing scenarios and love vault discussions. Great topic!

    This is great because I actually lived next to a metal refinery and it actually blew up a couple of years ago. I was panicking throwing stuff that I absolutely needed in a bag and it had a bunch of silver and gold some clothes and I have a fire proof bag with my passport and important documents that I threw in also. The bag was incredibly heavy. It was a scary situation. Fortunately the fire didn’t spread to my place all was fine. You never know when something unexpected will happen. Thanks for this video.

      @@edb3877 I’m definitely a little more prepared, but I think I just knew what to grab, it was more like running on adrenaline. Something’s were covered though insurance but it’s crazy how fast you can react in critical moments. (At least it felt that way) I was on my deck outside when it happened, I almost ran through the screen door lol, but it helped me get my stuff together faster. If it wasn’t for like seven fire departments showing up as fast as they did It would have taken over a few homes. I have some videos on Ig.
