It doesn’t matter where you are, the discovery that you have lost your wallet can be a hammer blow to you. After all, the chances are that you’ve got your credit and debit cards in there, your social security card, even your driver’s license. Maybe you’re also carrying public transit passes and perhaps you’re toting about some cash for those quick purchases.
It may feel like the end of the world but it’s not if you act quickly and know what you need to do. It’s easy to think about where you might have lost your wallet – did you leave it somewhere accidentally, did it drop out of a pocket and you didn’t notice, or could a pickpocket have taken it?
