well i have good news or bad news, this week i took out all my saving from my bank 3500 and bought some bitcoin
i now have a total of 6 bitcoins,
last night i bought 5 usb sticks and 2 waterproof boxes, i put the box inside of the other box then the 5 usb sticks in the middle of the box, afterwards i went into my backyard and dug a hole underneath the bird fountain,
i dug the hole almost 3 feet under. Then i buried it back and placed the bird fountain back.
The bird fountain has been in the same spot for many years so i am not worried about forgetting where i buried it, and grass doesn't grow underneath it.
so there we have it, I buried a total of 5 bitcoins, i plan to keep it there for 20 years. The 5 bitcoins cost me about 2300USD
The 6th bitcoin i keep it on my cellphone and i plan to spend it online,
Now i only have 100 dollars left in my bank, i am basically broke, my whole saving gone!
Was this a bad idea? after i buried it i was starting to feel like it was a bad idea,
i also did not put a hard password on it because i thought i would forget
but i wasn't planning on using my saving for anything, and the bank doesn't give me any interest for it,
i've never invested in anything , possibly because i don't have much money
anyways.. it's just money.. i'll save some more
i figure in the future, it might be way too expensive to own even 1 bitcoin,
i am now a proud owner of 5 bitcoins
this is my bitcoin story,
here are some pictures of the box and bird fountain, its not the exact ones that i own but similar
You got guts by spending all of your savings on those Bitcoins, I would have not been able to do that. If that was me I would have only spend halve of my money on Bitcoins. i now have a total of 6 bitcoins,

I do not think that you usb will get destroyed you have protected it well, the only thing I can think of is that your usb might be corrupted after such a long time underground.
