People are very negligent and they lose valuable items every day ..all over the world. We should learn from the mistakes that other people are making to prevent that from happening to us.
It is a huge responsibility to take control of your own wealth and not to rely on intermediaries or third parties to secure it for you. These actions come with risks and we should adapt our behavior to the change or we will lose that wealth.
Make copies of your private keys or recovery seed phrases and store them in a safe place... and make sure that it is protected from the environment.
