Same cards inside and everything; SS, Liscense, credit cards, etc. Luckily I keep all my money in a money clip in my front wallet, but I think I would have rather lost that then the wallet, it was a duct tape wallet I had made and had since high school, it even had some famous autographs I had gotten years ago. It's a bummer. I'm still hoping mine "shows up" too. Man this EXACT thing just happened to me.

There has been 'scope creep' and now it's not safe to have it on you. NCN: Bummer. But I always try to keep a photo copy of my driver's license and passport on file at home. If you still haven't checked, try looking at your car insurance papers. You might have the number written down there. Been there, done that. I hope all turns out well. Hm. Strangely, my co-worker found a debit check card this morning. It was for an employee at our company. He emailed it to her and all was resolved, but I don't even think she knew she lost it till he emailed her. Lulu: Originally, you were supposed to carry it around.

Now for the harsh reality: bad, bad NCN for carrying around the SS card. Go stand in the corner!! I hope you find your wallet in some place like behind the milk in the refrigerator or something like that. good call on contacting the officials immediately and getting holds placed on your accounts.

So far, I've never had to use them, but I do keep them on me, just in case. With a wife and 2 kids (plus 1 on the way) I wouldn't want my "no credit needed" stance to put my family in harm's way... so I keep them on me just in case we were to find ourselves stranded, in need of big time "i never thought this could happen" emergency situations - think 9/11 or Katrina. Plus, one of the cards is a Kroger credit card - I don't use the credit feature, but I do swipe the back of the card so that I can use the "grocery discount" feature... you know, the little things that hang from your keycheain? well, the kroger credit card has one of those built in.. so, I swipe the discount part and then pay in cash.

The title of your blog is No Credit Needed -- why do you have credit cards if you never intended to use them or need them? Yikes - I went to reply to this comment and accidentally deleted it...
