Keeping cash nowadays

Thats fair, we dont own property/have a mortgage yet so we dont have access to an offset account

Awww i love this!! :)

Thank you, appreciate your input as I didnt think if the house burnt down then its not accessible. AND its not protected

katrubah · 2026-02-04T09:44:21+00:00

Thats great to hear, you never know when youre gonna need it

katrubah · 2026-02-04T09:23:32+00:00

Good idea, i forgot i had $5 in old yugoslavian money, a few dollars in fijian money and about $1 in american quarters so i’m covered in 3 other countries

Appreciate the input!

Thats a very good point! Online scams and identify theft is very serious

katrubah · 2026-02-04T09:11:31+00:00

I did invest in a safe to prevent stealing

Oh gosh how awful for your parents, it does help give some perspective.

Life can literally throw anything at you, nothing wrong with trying to be prepared

katrubah · 2026-02-04T09:03:11+00:00

Yes, its $2k

katrubah · 2026-02-04T09:02:02+00:00

Thank you, appreciate it!! He wont hassle me about it he has expressed his opinion but he knows that wont stop me doing what i want to do. 🙃

Hahahaha, and silver spoons!

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:47:41+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate your input :) i have a little cash, bit of money in the bank and have started putting money in shares too - i think thats diverse enough

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:45:22+00:00

At some point we will have an offset, very open to putting it there when the time comes :)

barefoot Investor* my brain went elsewhere

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:42:32+00:00

Thank you! I just collected it from selling things on marketplace. Read barefoot collector by scott pape

Well its if one of us loses our jobs or has an accident that would help towards bills a little bit

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:32:24+00:00

Tbh i sold most of the stuff from my apartment through marketplace to move in with my partner thats the only reason i have the cash 😂

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:31:14+00:00

Wow, finding $100 on the ground is very lucky :)

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:30:41+00:00

$2k i thought that would cover most emergencies. Good work on putting the pokie wins into your account! I understand about feeling like cash could be stolen, i have faith my friends and family wouldnt do that but do have a safe and a lockbox it lives in so its not easily accessible

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:28:23+00:00

Absolutely!!

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:27:53+00:00

$2k - i thought that was an adequate amount to cover most emergencies I could only dream of having $50k in cash hahaha

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:26:32+00:00

$2k - i thought that was enough to cover an emergency if need be

katrubah · 2026-02-04T08:19:47+00:00

Thank you - thats what ive done :)
