I like the way you think, WC.

And not only are the portable ones, you know, portable, they are often quite pickable. I found this fact out the hard way, unfortunately. More than once. Spent increasing amounts of money with no real gain in security. Finally just gave up that route, as my funds fall far, far short of anything providing any appreciable level of security.

There are hiding places and then there are hiding places. I've come up with a few brilliant ones, but it all gets a bit much trying to keep track when cognitive issues are figured in. Worst part is I don't feel free to share because the info can be used by the bad as well. Sorry state of affairs.

I'm so sorry you had such a deplorable experience, rose.
