I did some research already on the bags lol none seem to be as fireproof as they claim to be. I'll see about moving the money to a "fire proof-er" location in the building. Thanks!

A really good safe should survive a structure fire but I wouldn't be sure of that. None of those fireproof bags are rated for structure fire temperatures for multiple hour durations. Not even considering the structure collapsing on them.

An old chest freezer would probably be a bit more fire safe too. Just don't plug it in if it is too old otherwise it will cause the fire.
