Where do you keep your drivers license?

I’ve seen people shove it into their pocket raw. Fucking terrifying way to live.

Well, I'm a millennial and a few days ago I saw a guy paying for his lunch with his watch. Needless to say, I was horrified

I’m in my 50s and don’t have a wallet. Only my phone. I can conjure up a wallet if I have to, but it’s not a normal thing for me.

your age has been updated to 23, sorry, family gatherings might get awkward

[–] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Pretty sure that would be the least awkward part of my family gatherings.

[–] pmk@piefed.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

What would be the most awkward?

I have a wallet, it usually stays at home or in my bag. Can't remember the last time I needed something from it (although that may be my memory failing)

[–] Willy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago

Same. I have a little card thing for when I’m traveling out of state but that’s the only time I carry anything but a phone.

[Imagine the 'into the square hole' format]

Where does the dept go? Into the phone.
Where do friends go? Into the phone.
Where does politics go? Into the phone.
Where does biometrics go? Into the phone.
Where does 2FA come from? From the phone.
Where does 2FA go? Into the phone.

God help you if your phone battery dies or your phone falls in the toilet

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I’m a millennial. I dont carry a wallet but I have a wallet style phone case where I keep my cash and cards. Is that what they mean or does my phone wallet count?

[–] 14th_cylon@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You have a wallet large enough to fit a phone in it, i say that definitely counts

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

what about a phone big enough to hold a wallet?

[–] pmk@piefed.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

A combination, phwallet, or wallphone?

[–] Evil_Incarnate@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 weeks ago

It's not a phwallet unless it comes from the area of Phuket, otherwise it's just a wallphone.

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

they removed the headphone jack to “save space”… i’d prefer a phone big enough to hold a wallet that they then fill with batteries and then still not carry a wallet

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

My phone wouldn't just be big enough to have a headphone jack, it would be big enough to fit the headphones

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago

a head-phone, if you will

[–] resolute_clover@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I gave up the wallet for a bit and then brought it back. Didn't like the card sleeves alone

The other day I saw a guy struggle for 2+ mins trying to scan his membership card on his phone to activate a gas pump. Meanwhile cars were lining up behind him, he was super flustered and eventually he had to pull around to the back of the line to try again. Have fun with your phone apps but that shit ain't for me, I'll just be an old dude carrying my cards around

[–] jrubal1462@mander.xyz 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Around me (Northeast Pennsylvania), I'd say only 70ish % of gas pumps have tap to pay. I am both too young and too old to be bothered to go into the store to pay for gas.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I cut a thin piece of leather, folded it, and sewed up 2 of the sides. It holds my license, credit card, Costco card, and a folded up $20. Pretty much unnoticeable in my pocket

[–] icanbrewmushrooms@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I also had a homemade wallet for many years

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 1 points 3 weeks ago

I'm making one at the minute.

[–] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm late GenX, i have a wallet lying around, but it doesn't leave home if it isn't specifically needed. Most of the time my phone is enough.

[–] Klear@piefed.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I don't carry a wallet since it was stolen last year.

[–] SunshineJogger@feddit.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

Saving up debt for retirement is the way to go

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

i’m a millennial and i carry neither a wallet nor keys

digital ID, apple pay, and codes instead of keys

i lose cards and keys basically monthly if they’re on me. before technology i literally tied things to my bags and they still sometimes got lost… or i locked myself out (sometimes a weekly occurrence)
