Edit to add: people rob people all the time without knowing what they’re going to get. When things get bad, everyone’s a target whether you’re a braggart or not. The more value you possess, the more dangerous you have to be to maintain that value.
You assume that people desperate enough to rob others would have the skill sets to succeed, and that resistance would be useless regardless of one’s prior training- does that about sum up your position?
If you're going to stock up on gold, you'd be wise to have enough lead to defend it.
Who brags about having gold? Do people do that?

Excellent point. Damn.
The only fighting chance one has against bandits is guns. I don’t keep gold.
