I also keep a couple grand in a second wallet I can grab when I'm on my way to a gun show, "just in case" I come across something I really want.

I would have that.  But things I "really want" come around too often.

I think that is a good plan.  I have maintained a decent emergency fund for several years now, but not in cash.  Keeping a portion of that in cash (where you can access it) is likely a good idea.

And with this crowd, I probably don't need to mention that this cash is something you don't talk about.  I think most people treat it that way, but you never know.

I got a coffee can full of nickels.

Except to strangers online.
