What would you do? You had no ATM cards, id, etc..would one be able to go into a bank and find a way to withdraw cash?

Further define "middle of nowhere". Banks wouldn't matter if you were in the Amazon rainforst or the Sahara Desert.

You're screwed without ID, but you guys don't have your bank account number memorized?

First you need to find a water source, then shelter, then you have to figure out how to build a fire using just sticks and kindling. Then you need to find a food source...

Account number?? I'd be lucky to remember the full name of my bank. I just know it as the place between the bar and chinese restaurant. :eek:

I would kill a man, take all of his identification, and assume his life.

Or i'd just call someone for a ride, whichever I can do first.

Neither would a wallet.



If I were in some location far from home, I'd prob just call 911 and tell them the situation and see what can be done from there.

Personally, I hate wallets. I refuse to carry one (ask my wife - she has to call the banks every 6 months or so to get new debit cards for me because the stripe gets worn off.)

I've been stranded "in the middle of nowhere" before - I live in the middle of nowhere. It's pretty simple: walk or hitchhike until you're no longer in the middle of nowhere.
