At my stage of life I’m planning for the final. I’ve examined a free Fidelity offering called FidSafe that provides secure storage and sharing of essential electronic documents. Thoughts?

It sounds like a good idea.
According to their FAQ, it’s only for US residents:
If you’re looking for the digital equivalent of a safe deposit box my recommendation would be to pay for cheap redundant cloud storage, encrypt your files using a RSA key, then push them onto the cloud storage.
BackBlaze might be an option, they provide instructions on using a command line tool on a Mac but it’s using Python so I’m pretty sure you could use it on Ubuntu MATE.
That way you have a key that you keep safe at home or in your pocket and when you need to access the “safe” you pull your files and then use the key to make them readable.
The reason I’m recommending you add a layer of encryption and disregard their guaranty that your files will be encrypted is because: if you don’t need to trust them, why should you?
