Got a "lifetime" monthly monitoring fee if $22 back in the 90s and have had it ever since (went with me when I moved).

Definitely worth it considering the discount I get on my homeowners insurance for it.

The neighborhood next to mine in the far north burbs of Dallas had a house robbed at gun point. They hit two other houses in different neighborhoods. The bound the family up and took belongings.

OP is dumb enough to announce to the whole world online that he doesn't have an alarm system.

Even if you don't have an alarm system, that's not something you're supposed to tell other people about.

Have dachshunds, no need for alarm system.

I do have a ring camera though


My house came with an alarm system, but we do not use it. We have a 100lbs dog. The dog will probably lick the intruder if they get in, but he sounds scary as hell from the outside

Also have ring on front and back of house.

8 years plus in a suburb and no alarm payments. Question is fair in normal states.

I agree with ya. Alarms are a pain in the azz. 99% of people don't have anything worth stealing. TVs and stereos are inexpensive. They just want lawn equipment and power tools from your shed they can sell for quick cash.

Live in the suburbs and pay for one. Not really any crime in my neighborhood but once or twice had some strange people knock or ring at night. I have the cheapest ADT there is... gives me peace of mind to set it

No you don’t. How much has your home insurance paid you?

I'll play the game. Been in my house for 11 years now. Probably have paid between $40-50k in insurance over that time frame. Received around $80k from Ida and still had additional tax deductions for things not covered by insurance.

What do I win?

I am worried some dude who can't even afford to buy a used Dodge truck he's been eyeing for 4 years will come steal my used fishing rods, then use them to commit return fraud at Academy.

Only thing missing now is fareplay complaining about how expensive his security subscription has gotten.

I mean, wouldn't you feel the same if your "career" was selling cell phone cases and knock-off luxury perfumes and Invicta watches at a mall kiosk?
