I've been robbed six times. I remember the first time clearly. I was 11 and had just gotten home with my father. Earlier I had called my mother and begged to be allowed to play our NES (yes. i had to beg for permission to play it). She had said yes. So we walk in i go upstairs to play my games, and like 10 minutes later someone breaks in. I kept playing my game, and finally robber dude came upstairs for whatever reason they do. I was like "dude, just don't take my nintendo. oh wait. and my sega." long story short. we lost a couple hundred dollars worth of stuff. I kept my nintendo and sega. I loved that robber. as a side note, once i got a dreamcast that was stolen. and like sockpuppets up there I've gone through a lot of weird stuff too.
This is one of the most idiotic articles I have ever read.A much better question to ask would be, "How Do I Keep You Out?"Instead of recommending that you always keep a little spare cash out in case a burglar comes, why doesn't the author discuss home security with this "ex-burglar?" Keeping your money out in the open basically says, "I'm weak and have no real security, here take this, hopefully you'll go away quickly after you break into my vulnerable home."
if they want to get in, they willlocks can be broke by bolt cutters (happens when some one lost the key to thier locker at my old school)locks can also be pickedsecurity fences or panels can be broke as wellhelleven the wall of a building can be destroyed (heard of a story in which burglars used a sledge hammer to take down a wall to still computers)alarm sensors can be avoided (mythbusters did an ep on infra-red, sonic alarms)
