Put yourself in the shoes of a burglar so you can anticipate where they'd look for your valuables.
Step 1: Understand the burglar's motivation
Understand that the burglar has two goals: to find your valuables, and to get in and out of your house as fast as possible.
Step 2: Practice diversion with cash
Leave a small amount of cash in an obvious spot, so burglars think they've found all the cash in your house and won't bother looking for more.
Step 3: Hide money and valuables
Spread out your valuables and money. Hide some in messy areas that would take a burglar too long to go through, such as a child's room, basement, or garage.
Tip
Don't hide valuables in obvious places like drawers or purses.
Step 4: Divert the burglar
Make a diversion box with an ordinary item, such as a cereal box. Store valuables in the box.
Step 5: Use a home safe
Store extra-valuable items in a home safe bolted to the floor.
Step 6: Inventory your stuff
Keep track of the valuables in your house in case you are the victim of burglary. But hopefully, you'll outsmart the burglar by staying one step ahead of them.

Nah, just get one of those big safes to store more valuables. You know, like what Psycho Dad uses in the McJuggerNuggets Psycho series to store $30,000 USD in cash stolen from his own son. Sick bastard. If a tortured Jesse Ridgeway on the premises 24/7 cannot get the combo, nobody can. I know those videos are fake btw. I was just making sure y'all know what sort of safe I mean.
+Simon Ghost Riley I know, ok.

I got so tired of burglars breaking into my house that I moved to an empty lot. It's OK till it rains... that's because some burglar walked of with my umbrella.

It's all fun and games until one of the burglars actually decides to crash at your home for a little while - many do that to eat, sleep and wash

my suggestion be hide in light fixtures or ceiling fans or air ducts after you unscrew it . thieves won't have time to think to look up above their head.
How to protect your house:
1. buy an aperture science home defense turret.
2. set it up.
3. don't ever walk in front of it
4. sleep peacefully
My dad bought a safe that looks like shaving cream
Don't say things like that or a Canadian woman will notify the authorities and they will arrest and lock ur ass up
I swear my life when I saw the title of the video in my mind I thought it's gonna be funny to post a comment saying "I'm a burglar now I know where to search"

Why not just kill the burglar bastard instead of hiding it, you wont know where you find it when u hid it

Did you know this method is badass?
Kind of useless a Burglar could be watching this and now knows where to look
While this video is a good idea, it's really bad to announce it like that. I'd suggest somewhere more secretive, like having a scret place built in the house to be almost invisble, especially at night.
There are sooooooo many flaws and stupidity in this... Not trolling, being completely serious.
