Not in my truck and only sometimes at work, but I have slacks on so it sits to the side a little.

I have a bad back and have known this for a while.

I haven't used a "back pocket" wallet for many years. Used a regular money clip for a long time, but switched to a bi-fold type front-pocket type a few years ago. It holds bilsl in the fold and has card pockets for CCs, DL, Ins. card as well as having outside pockets for two cards, IDs or whatever your choice is.

No I stopped carrying a wallet right after I finalized my divorce, sold the house and paid off all my credit cards.
Keep my DL in my pocket and carry my License if I'm hunting. Try to pay cash for as much as I can

Not for years.

Think of it this way...your glutes are your body's foundation when you're seated...just like the foundation of your house, if one side is shifted lower than the other, then everything above it is going to be out of alignment. Your muscles/tendons/ligaments/bones are gonna bear the brunt and try to compensate...This
will make them work in a way they were not meant to and can cause you some pain.

My wallet is in my front pocket if I'm out of the car, or in the cup holder if I'm driving.

Left front pocket. It was reported that you were likely to get a lost wallet back if there was cash in it. I carry no cash.

Front pocket wallet in leather. Hard to find but easier on the hips.

Front left pocket. I use a medium sized binder clip as a wallet. Whenever I need a new one I just take one from the office. Lifetime wallet supply for free.

Not any longer. For a younger guy I had major back issues sitting on my wallet at my desk all day. Went to a chiropractor, that was a fried of the family, and he explained it this way; sitting on a wallet is like putting a shim under brand new cabinet that doesn't need it. After a while the door starts to drag then before you know it the door won't shut at all. He then told me that he has young children just like I do, I can come back regularly and contribute to his kids college fund or take the money and use it for my own kids.

For some reason that registered with me and I moved to the money clip in the front pocket. It basically eliminated my back issue.

If riding the motorcycle it is in back pocket. Pretty much the rest of time it is front right pocket or on console if driving.

i used to do this until one day I forgot it was up there and got robbed lol, Then I went to a biker shop and got one of those wallets with a chain on it. Now it sits in my lap while I drive and it follows me out of the car whether I remember or not lol.

I carry a pretty thin bi fold and it usually kind of sits to the side. But if I'm gonna be sitting for awhile, at my desk, in the car, or if I'm home I usually remove it and set it down.

How much would you charge to sit on mine? It's a small money clip type wallet that I keep in my back pocket. For your pricing calculations.

Also my brother has the mother of all wallets!! The thing is so thick it won't even close all the way. All his pants have wear holes in the pockets because of the shear mass of his wallet. We tried to determine it's contents one time and he has receipts in it from the 80's!!! They are so worn they don't even have print on them. But he insist that one day he may need it.

I used to carry a bi-fold that was relatively thick and caused some back issues. I stopped one day and looked at what was causing it to be so thick (not money) and realized I was carrying a bunch of pointless cards like a top golf card, bass pro gift cards, amazon gift card, costco membership card, etc... Realistically, you really only need a handful of cards on you everyday. I keep my DL, LTC, CC, debit card, insurance card, hunting/fishing license and a small amount of cash. Now it all fits in a nice leather Trayvax minimalist wallet.

When I'm fishing at night, I carry a mugger's wallet in back, and the real Mccoy in front. Otherwise, my wallet stays in the back.

I never knew of these. Interesting. Why not just carry a .45 and help rid society of these bottom feeding thugs?
