My wallet is getting fat. I think I should carry a money clip, but what about the change? And what about train tickets, credit cards, bank cards, ID, stuff like that? Where do they go??

If you have a money clip.. how easy is it to lose your cards?

There's this thing called a "House" where you can put things you don't need at the moment.

Crazy, I know, but everyone's doing it. It's the new thing, you know?

Alright, you need cash, gov't ID, bank card, credit card, train fare (for those who commute to work), student ID, health card, not to mention club cards (subway, whatever), coupons.

The rest goes in the house, but what about those cards you need on you?

i carry my cash loose in my other front pocket and change in a rear pocket.


Interesting. With a case that small that'd probably work out nicely for bills and cards...

I have more cards than that (minus coupons) in my wallet and it is just fine. Look into getting a "slim" wallet.

Ah, these wacky inventors have taken the "house" concept and they took it a step further . . . wait a second, what do you call them again . . . ah yes, they're called "pockets", if I'm not mistaken.

Those wacky inventors, what next? Little leather sleeves for paper currency?

I don't use a wallet or even a money clip. I just carry an ID, credit card, and phone card and then just fold the money over them. There are other cards I use but not on a daily basis, so I only bring them when I need them. Change gets left in the car for various uses later on.

Pockets hold such inventions as the cell phone, mp3 player, camera and such. With 3 of 4 pockets already filled, a wallet seems to be the only device left.

Unless you have .. what.. "pants" with ... "20 pockets"?

I know... how about QUIT CARRYING AROUND SO MUCH FREAKIN JUNK!

You can't possibly need all the stuff in your wallet at every second of the day. Get a purse, or learn how to economize what you carry around with you.
