According to statistics, the most popular hiding places for money in the home are under furniture and behind walls. People also often hide money in books, mattresses, pillows, or decorative items. But burglars are very experienced and know all the classic hiding places for currency and valuables.

Too obvious hiding places should be avoided in favour of unique and original places. Sante Plus shared some of them.

Where to hide money

It is important to remember that thieves know many common hiding places, so you need to choose a hard-to-reach place.

Even the most sophisticated hiding places are not reliable. If you have a large amount of money that you want to save, it is better to choose a safer solution: a safe or a bank account.
