 You are not a ghost to banks and the gubment. 

Good for keeping that info secure, but, your "security" us putting you at higher risk for the further. I don't find that to be sensible.  
 No, I know. I'm not referring to the government, I just don't have the time or money to worry about data breaches. Messing with government bureaucracy is a time-consuming nightmare and the last thing I need is to take a month working with the SS office or whatever if there's a data breach leading to identity theft. 
 You have no control over that anyway, really, so... My unsolicited advice is to just buy BTC and don't worry about it.  
 I do if I keep my info safe or, at the very least, strongly restrict what companies have access to it. It just isn't a worthwhile risk for me at this point in my life.
