    I get it you can pay with your phone these days. But I also have an ID and a public transportation card which can’t be on my phone. Also I have cash on me. Where to keep that? Every time I pull out my phone or keys money falls out of I keep it loosely in there. I know Gen Z doesn’t have any money, but where do you keep your drivers licence and public transportation card? And insurance card? Where do you keep your drugs then? I have some coke and keta in there as well. Putting it in my pockets and it ends up in the washing machine. And I keep a set of earplugs in there for when I go to a party or concert. Because I would always forget to grab them, I now have them with me all the time.

        I had the same, but now I have custom ones and they do not fit in the tubes. I love the filter, but I still don’t know if I like these expensive custom ones better than 20 euro standard ones. They slide out easily, especially when I’m dancing in a hot place. The 20 euro cheap ones always stay in due to the rubber rings on them. It was definitely not worth the 220 euros to have custom ones made.

      As a Zoomer with a wallet, no clue where the people without keep anything. I think there’s phone cases. Ive seen peers fold money and put it inside their case against the back of their phone.

          What van you do with just 20? Over here that’s not enough for most train tickets. You could get 2 beers and some fries. But going home with public transportation only works with 20 euros if your bike gets stolen in your own city.

          I keep roughly 200 on me at all times. Several times I needed large parts of it for sudden expenses for which I couldn’t use a card, of when the card system was offline or something like that. Of a friend needs cash suddenly.

      Card holder on your phone case, i guess

      Or one of those tiny things that are basically a wallet buy hold like 2-3 cards.

        So when you lose your phone, you lose everything? So your phone becomes this thick brick in your pocket? No thanks.

        Actually, the ear plug case is the same size as a card, so I have 3 cards, plugs and cash in it. It’s on my key ring. So I also don’t really have a wallet, but still a wallet. I usually have around 200 euros cash with me, that doesn’t fit into a phone case as it usually consists of 5s and 20s.
