Oops, yah, there is the range limitation. Though I suppose a bank could theoretically underwrite the lifestyle of a shut-in wizard who is happy living above (or below) the vault. ^_^

Incidentally, a Proxy is a useful way for a powerful wizard to guard their stash. I've used them in a few adventures to good effect.

Oh, and you could arrange a nasty "guard dog" trap on a vault or other cache by using Summoning Gems. Since they activate when smashed, a simple triphammer trap could call wolves or myrmidons (or worse) to the scene when the vault is breached.
