Now, take everything out of your wallet and take inventory! Most of us could not come up with everything in their wallet or purse. Write down the 1-800 # for your card in case of loss or theft. Don't include the card number! Make copies of any important business cards or other information you want to keep or is irreplaceable. You can store this information through a cloud storage or there is a website that is designed specifically to store this information called Wallet Garden. Again, I would think twice about leaving it on your computer or a thumb drive stored at your home. If you lost your wallet or purse due to a house fire, it would be so much easier to get your information online which would give you access any time or a safe deposit box would work as well but not as quick to gain access which would be important for a theft.
