Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile?

Given the increasing ease with which hackers can bore into sites like this and get names and addresses, I would hesitate to post photos of my system that might tempt home theft.

Your concern seems to me to be a difficult way for thieves to target wealthy individuals. Will they fly, or drive to your area? They will require some real muscle to move a system. Why not just use google maps, or Zillow to locate areas with large estates and find a house with a ten car garage. Oh, let’s make it someplace local, so that they don’t need a plane ticket and have local connections to dump the stolen goods.

Honestly, someone that can hack this site will go after someone in the digital domain. Make sure that you don’t use the internet for any transactions and keep your money under your pillow.

That works too except that it won't reveal exactly what is in the home.

You see, I have known three different people who had their entire home audio systems stolen, and I have heard of many more over the years. The funniest theft I know of happened during a party when everybody got quite wasted out in the back yard, and the thief just waltzed out with the living room system.

My home insurer strongly suggested I insure my system against fire and theft. Call me paranoid.
