Are You More Unsecured if You Leave Your Mobile Phone or Your Wallet At Home?

I read this question on a survey, cool question, To me it is the wallet, but the phone there's no way of getting help, but still it is the wallet bad feeling.

For me, I have a phone case that is a wallet. I never carry cash and I have my drivers license and my three most used debit cards in my phone case.  So if I leave one at home, I left them both at home.  So I'm not sure how I would have answered that survey question.

Neither because I have a phone case that carries my debit card, driver's license, credit card, twenty dollar bill and my phone.  Plus I never go anywhere without my phone. I instinctively know when I am more then ten feet from my phone because it has become as much of a part of me as wearing clothes. It is on the night stand next to my bed when I go to sleep and in my pocket at all times other than when I am using it. My son broke my phone once and I had a replacement within seventy five minutes. I check my phone at least once every twenty minutes which has been a habit since the children were born (they are now nineteen and twenty one). I get notifications from both jobs on that phone as well as three personal e-mails and all of my banking and investment accounts.

I would say my wallet because I have Onstar in my SUV and if emergency comes up I can use that service.  Also in most of  the local shopping centers and grocery there always seems to be some type of security so I sure they would find a way to place a call

You bet. A mobile phone left at home means risk of miscommunication, and a wallet left at home means you can’t receive what you want to buy because you don’t have money with you to pay for anything.

Wallet because it has my money, credit cards and Id.  I sometimes leave my phone if I'm going to the store and it isn't a big deal.

Leaving the money at home would be much worse than accidentally leaving the phone at home. I have no trouble ditching the cell phone now and then. It's liberating even.

For me it's my wallet.   I lived without a cell phone for most of my years (telling my age here  )   I can find a way to communicate if I have to, my wallet, if I got pulled over and needed to show my drivers license I wouldn't have a way to do that.

I would hate to be without a phone. You could use the phone to call someone to bring you money if you need it.

[squirrelgirl44]

I could go all day long without realizing I had left my wallet at home. I would realize within minutes if I didn't have my phone.

[mamatygress]

I think my wallet, but the phone is a biggie.

[stretch1967]

Yes. Do my health I have to have a list of meds and health issues

[mrisha]

I never leave my wallet at home, but I do leave my mobile phone at home all the time.

[oldbuddy]

I have done both and it never bothered me, since I didn't get stopped by the police.

I keep my credit cards in a shielded aluminum case in my buttoned back pocket, so it's pretty obvious when it's not there.
