My wallet would speak with its hands… actually just one finger on each hand, would be all it needs.

He knows well if he’ll be rude, I’ll replace him with Cricket money clip.

Mine would say it rarely gets called into action but it's usually pretty expensive when it does.


I usually buy in pairs.

My wallet would be happy that I don’t have 73 of them. But I also don’t use a wallet. All I have is my drivers license and a debit card. I’m one of those weird folks that still likes to carry some cash.

It would complain about frivolous purchases adding up, and I would remind it that in a balanced investment portfolio you want something you can trade for a can of beans if things go badly.
