My parents are dead, and I have no in-laws or other relatives I visit often enough to keep my back-ups up to date.
A fireproof safe is far more bother than a cloud server, nor is it 100% reliable. Despite what you seem to think, keeping a copy of your library on a cloud is totally safe. Things don't get mysteriously corrupted on a cloud server just by themselves; things get messy when you keep a live library in the cloud AND use it on more than one device.
I'm not saying you should rely solely on a cloud server; the best way is to keep both local and cloud backups.
