I live by the cash-back bonus, and charge nearly EVERYTHING I buy(I pay the balance off in full, every month), so I rarely carry more than $20-30. When I occasionally get paid in cash, it makes me a nervous wreck, carrying hundreds of dollars around.
It truly is a feeling of confidence, having only,.........$17 in your pocket. If you lose it, big deal!

Do you normally carry that much cash on you? If so, you might want to rethink that policy and look into getting a credit card. As long as you're responsible with it and pay your balance right away, it's a safer way of doing things than carrying cash. If you lose it, all you have to do is call the company and report it lost. They'll cancel the card and usually remove any charges that were made that day.

I never carry more than $40.00 in cash unless I'm going to a special event like a concert or a fair where I know they might not accept my card.

I think my friend has something like this. He has been using a money clip for like 3 years and hasn't had a problem with it.

BTW...Off Topic, I tried emailing you and it came right back to me on your website. Can I PM you instead?

I NEVER carry that much, ever ever. I had gotten paid the night before and just stuck the money in my wallet. I forgot to put some away like I always do. Just plain stinks.
