IMO go with a beneath-your-clothing money belt. It won't stop a
determined thief from demanding it from you at knifepoint but it will
thwart pickpockets.

Unless you are wearing a turtleneck or high-collared shirt, the strap of a
neck pouch is likely to be exposed. A pickpocket could fairly easily
slip a finger underneath and lift it out. If the strap is fairly strong
then it could act like a garrotte as the thief tries to run away with it.
