How to make a list of important documents to keep safe
List key papers and how to find them safely.
ChatGPT can group paper types without seeing the files. Use labels such as ID, home papers and insurance. Keep real numbers and storage details private.
Try a blank list with columns for paper type and where it is kept. Add real places outside chat. Keep private papers in a safe place.
Check what you need and what you must keep. Do not throw away the real papers just because you made a list or scan. Check that you can find and read needed copies.
- Use the sample prompt.
- Check that all groups stay and the Where kept fields are blank.
- Fill in real places in private. Keep the papers safe.
- Check what you must keep before you move or throw away papers.
Make a blank list for ID, home papers and insurance papers. Add a blank Where kept field for each. Do not ask for numbers, files or where I store them.
Paste the message into ChatGPT, then fill in any blanks before you send it. ChatGPT opens in a new tab. Opening it does not send the message.
Share access only with people you choose and trust. A list is not a backup.
