IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS

[meroberts]

A WARNING TO THE COMMUNITY.

Yesterday, I learned that a couple of our community friends were robbed. All their important documents, valuables, and many important things, like their computers, were taken from their home in spite of their security measures.

May I suggest that all of us scan our important documents and save them on the free "CLOUD" space offered by Google? This is a space that can be accessed from any computer, at any time, and from any part of the world.

Having a scan or copy of your documents in your local drive is not enough to keep your important documents safe. If your computers get stolen, you end up with nothing.

You need to be able to show a copy, or know the numbers of your documents, when you report a theft. And you will need to carry a copy of these documents in case you do get stopped by the Mexican authorities, at any time.

It is sad, that we have to, lately, take extra measures of security as these thefts increase. Being prepared is now a part of life in Guanajuato. I, myself, will spend the day doing just that...

Be safe not sorry!
