My wallet is gone and it’s not a bad thing. Let me explain.
We had our family Hanukkah last Sunday and Lillian took my wallet and gave me a new iPhone case that has a slot in the back that is just large enough to carry a drivers license and a credit card.
This is excellent because it means one less thing to carry around.
Thanks Lillian!
Great Gift.
Segue to the eight levels of giving.
Next getting rid of keys. I did a little research and the lock companies already have the technology to use Bluetooth from your phone to open your house door. It is not yet popular for some reason. I’d guess reliability. Perhaps I’ll go out on the bleeding edge on this one.
The opportunity here is to think of all the things we carry around with us and think of ways to cram them into a smart phone. Here are a some of the things I carry around in my wallet and brief case:
- Keys
- Money
- Pens and pencils
- Maps
- Library card
- Membership cards
- Credit card receipts
- Cameras
- Mints
- Business cards
- Breath Mints
- Kindle
- Sun Glasses
The electronic wallet exists and fortunes are going to be made populating it. Keys are next.

Since stores will take coupons from my phone, I bet a could take photos of all my membership/library cards and just whip out my phone when they need them. Thanks for the idea!
