Best home hiding places?

leave it with her lawyer in their office safe....
Open a safe deposit box at her bank.
If she is trying to patch things up, then why be so sneaky?:rolleyes:

In a regular lock box but paint it with invisible paint. Then hide the invisible box in the hamper so you'll know where it is.:rolleyes:
 
I agree with the other suggestions of just opening her own account. But if she really feels the need to hide the $$$, tell her to put it in a Nalgene bottle, close it up tight, and bury it in an easily accessible place in the yard. Nalgene bottles are $8.-$14. at Big 5 stores here, and they're damn near indestructible.

Just for the fun of it, I buried a bunch of stuff in Mason jars when I was a kid, and dug it up a year later. Everything was fine.

A lady in one of my law classes went thru a situation very similar to this about two years ago, although her-ex was "tossing" her apartment when she was at class or work. She said that she hid a couple hundred dollars wrapped around the batteries in her... battery operator boyfriend. He found ever other spot she stashed money, valuables, and a handgun.

I hope that all it goes well.
 
Go to a local bank that sells American Express Travellers Checks.

Convert the cash to AMEX checks. The teller will require that she register her positive ID into the AMEX database and sign the checks. The checks are listed on AMEX's website and they can then ONLY be cashed by her and no-one else.

Keep the checks in a drawer in open sight because they are 100% safe and can be used at most large stores and cashed at many banks. AND if her estranged partner lifts them, all she does is reports them stolen to AMEX and they replace them in 24 hours. Then if he attempts to cash them he could find himself facing criminal charges for fraud.
 
Just don't forget where you put your loot.

A relation of a friend used to be pot dealer thirty-some years ago. He got into an argument with someone who knew his business and got scared. So he buried $10,000 in his back yard, left it there a while, and then forgot where he buried it. He finally rented a backhoe and tore up his whole back yard. He never did find the money. :)
 
Burying it seems like a bad idea for multiple reasons. Could be seen, could forget where, could get damaged. There are plenty of good suggestions in this thread.
 
If you bury money one might want to put some metal with it so you can use a metal detector to find it.

I heard about one guy who put 35,000 in his wall somewhere and when he finally went to get it he found a $35,000 rats nest. Two words; ammo can
 
Thanks for the many replies. I saw her over the weekend and she is gonna open an online checking account and just keep it on the down low. They are really working hard at keeping it together, but she needs a plan B.
 
What about a bottle? Maybe if you have an empty wine bottle put it in a ziplock bag and keep it with other bottles. Red wine then try to stick the cork back In. Or A DVD case. Or in a book, or in backpack or suitcase or briefcase you don't use anymore. Sorry if these suggestions are bad, Ive never thought about this.

Oh my, that must have been absolutely maddening. :)
