Why My Gold Is In A Safe Deposit Box


Recommended Posts

Yup, I like the old saying, "never cast your pearls before swine".

 

I like my waterproof, Schedule 40, sub-terrain, security device.

 

I've been doing this for years. It is the only thing I trust.

 

It's interesting, over the years rumors have started and a "tale of buried treasure" has evolved.

 

One time a friend asked me if he could see my gold. I told him it was buried. That was 14 years ago. Then, one day, I stopped in at the local watering hole (3 - 4 years later) and heard some locals talking about gold buried up on the ridge. They did not know me and I did not join in. I just smiled and thought about how much these stories can grow. The yarn had been stretched quite a bit!

 

I'm lucky to own 27 acres up on that ridge. It's real secure -

This happened just down the road from me in Cowell. The town is a very small coastal fishing centre that might, at best, have a couple of hundred people living there.

It has me intrigued as I have not heard of any prospectors living there, it is half a days drive from anything resembling a goldfield and certainly nothing that would produce 80oz in 8 years. I can only presume that he, or she, spent most of their time over west.

Back to the town, I would be shocked if everyone in Cowell did not know everyone else and if the foul deed was carried out by a local then their identity will not stay secret for long.

Where I live no one keeps there gold in the house, break ins are very common. Everyone around here buries it in the backyard.

Hope this poor bugger gets his back, but it don't like his chances. Even worse is it looks pretty obvious it was someone he knew.
