What should I do to cost-effectively prevent burglaries? I live in a home not an apartment.

I figure this is on-topic as it's about wealth-preservation.

Put some sign like "will decapitate whoever breaks in". If I was a burglar and wasn't sure which house of the neighborhood I should break into, then surely I'm going to exclude the house where the owner is ready to decapitate me.

Metal bars are for autists who don't have any sense of aesthetics, live in a self imposed prison and think they're going to get burgled by a Seal team.

Vast majority of burglaries are unplanned and take advantage of open windows. Even a small amount of resistance is going to be sufficient. If you really are a high value target, they'll wait until you leave the house and get to you that way.

That's the major difference with Europe. Those gangs are very methodical. I don't know anybody who didn't have his house/appartment complex targeted at least once the last 20 years by gypsies or other filth. Other than that it's safe. Rich european countries are like a disneyland for poor eastern european criminals.

Set up your own camera system with playback and retention capabilities for more than 30 days, review it nightly before bed. Make sure you have 360° coverage and one extra at eye level on the front and back doors. Make sure you have solid door frames and solid front and back doors. Buy a better than average lock or better yet an electronic lock. Buy reinforced windows. Keep all doors and windows locked at all times. Get an alarm system that has window sensors and dont let the payment lapse. Display the alarm company sign on your front lawn. Secure your wifi so potential thieves cant steal your information. Park your vehicles in a garage everytime its possible to do so, burglars will have to trespass and hopefully get caught by the cameras to verify if you are home. Get a doggo, let them bark when anyone is at the door and dont discourage them from doing so. Post official no trespassing signs. Get a functional fence atleast 6 feet tall. Get homeowners insurance that covers theft and burglary and keep up on the payments. Keep all receipts for everything inside of a high rated fire proof safe bolted to the floor out of sight. Keep all valuables stored away from windows and doors with windows. Tell your wife/kids not to talk about anything valueable that they own or wear it in public outside of special occasions, all acquaintances are potential burglars but they cant steal what they dont know is there. Buy multiple firearms and place them securely around the house. Teach your wife and children how to shoot and make sure they concealed carry everywhere they go.

Dog, easily. We had a home alarm system at my ghetto house growing up and it didn't do shit to deter burglars or thieves, once we got dogs we never had an issue again. They'll hear the barking and move right on down to the next house.

Think of petty criminals like the base retards they are, if there's any amount of friction they aren't going to bother with your house.

There was this tv show that had a guy breaking into people's houses. People knew the guy was coming, but didn't know when. It was amazing how quickly he emptied these houses.

I highly recommend watching the show. Lots of advice. Quick ones is correcting any easy vulnerability. Put glass block in the basement, alarms, cameras, thorn bush in front of easy breakable 1st floor windows, etc.

I cant remember the guy's name or I would find the youtube video about him. There was a negro breaking into people's homes, robbing the and then murdering the home owners. He did numerous times. He broke into a house where the guy and his wife beat the fuck out of that negro and he ending up fleeing. That nig came back a few weeks later, but the guy put up bars on all his windows and his doors and the nig left. The nig was caught eventually and said that he came back to that guy's house specifically to kill him and his wife, but couldnt find an easy way in.

Burglary is not hard to do, especially if you target complacent suburban neighborhoods. No one even locked their doors in my friend's old neighborhood growing up, blew my mind. They're lucky burglars are retards who tend to rob the house down the street.

Staffies are basically pit bulls though. Not that it matters, any big/strong dog is going to be a risk if you have kids because they can do more damage if they get upset. It's not that any dog is inherently bad, some of them are just more dangerous than others once they inevitably get triggered.

Staffies have one of the strongest bite forces of all dogs. Yet they are one of only 2 of 3 dog breeds deemed safe around children by the world doggo organisation.

Theyre called the nanny dog for a reason.

That sounds like a meme straight from the mouths of pittie mom Facebook. No dog is "officially safe around children", they're animals and can become upset and irrational, the only thing you CAN observe and prepare for is their potential damage. A toy dog isn't going to hurt your kid as bad as a staffie, Rottweiler, or German Shepherd, so it's a risk you're going to have to willingly take on if you get one.

Certain breeds are definitely more dangerous eg pitbulls however ALL dogs are a danger to habe around children AND yourself. Wonder how many of those "put moms" would say their dog "dindu nuffin" after biting off their own child's arm.
