Nothing ruins a wonderful day of shopping other than reaching for your pocket and realizing your leather wallet was lost and your back pocket was ripped. Desperate people with evil minds have roamed around the streets to get the money you worked very hard on. In times of poverty, despair, and misery, people will do anything to have cash for food or for drugs, maybe, we don’t know.
Thieves and snatchers usually target big places with tons of people so they will stay incognito and unnoticed. They’re like evil ninjas but they target our hard earned pesos. I myself got a taste of these evil ninjas’ evil ways. I got my wallet filched out of my pocket without my awareness and it pissed me off.. a lot.
SO here’s some tips to take care of your beloved leather money holders.
1. Keep your wallet in front of your pocket
Since we cannot see our own behinds and have very little sensory nerves back there its advisable to keep our wallets on our front pockets. If you sensed a pretty brave stranger reaching out for your wallet while its on your front pocket, you have all the rights to punch that person on the throat. That would hurt and it will teach him a lesson
2. Don't thicken up your wallet
Putting a lot of things on your wallet seems pretty usual for most people. Receipts, cards, condoms, those little things adds up as time goes by and before you know it you've got more crap on your wallet than actual money. It's become very hard to fold and will cause a bigger bulge on your pockets. Remember: that the bigger the wallet, the easier it is to see. It will act as a signal for those evil ninjas who wants your money.
Keep your wallet thin. Throw away all the receipts you don't even know why its in there, dispose all the business cards of people you don’t even talk to and dump that condom because you aren’t gonna get laid anyway if you got your stolen by these snatchers.
Be Alert, Be Awake.
A thief would not target a person who gives full attention to his valuables and surroundings. Keep a good posture, walk with fast enough, scan the place left to right be confident and blend in.
Its also advisable to touch the pocket which holds your wallet from time to time for the assurance of it not being stolen.
4. Think like a criminal
I will not judge any of you but if you think like a criminal it will be easier for you to take care of your valuables. Always ask yourself “If I’m a thief, how would I make this hard for myself? What if someone put this here?” Put yourself in the mindset of someone looking to snatch a wallet not to do what they do but to make it difficult for them.
5. Your life is more important than your wallet
