Good information on distraction. Make sure to toss it to them at their feet to one side. That way they look and bend down, giving you a chance to move out of the danger zone.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

You make a good point LeRoy!

[@Linux567]

Brilliant !

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Thank you

Jeremy, your advice is spot on man. I own fine watches but I do NOT even wear a Casio when out and about in the Philippines. The fact that you are a foreigner, may give a robber the idea your el-cheapo watch has great value. My plan is to draw no attention to myself. (Hard to do as I am large, very light and blonde.) I have nothing to prove to anyone. My bride hates my often slobby appearance but I tell her the shorts with the small rip are comfortable! One other thing a traveller may want to get is a Cordura nylon neck pouch that can hold money, passport, IDs etc. Worn inside your shirt, it is vewry inconspicious.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Good points Jack. Thank you.

Simple but sound advice

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Thanks Graeme! Thanks for watching!

Have been to many countries.... I only take small amount of money for each day, I leave cards, passport and other forms of identity in hotel safe. Never tell anyone the hotel you are staying at, Do not take a stranger to your hotel room.

[@benpayne3254]

plan to keep me money in the show just in case :)

[@enniswhalen2428]

At 5:15 ,he FINALLY shows you where to keep the "good". clip-on wallet . . . .

[@ZERUS1648]

Thanks for the video, would you have a link for the inside the belt wallet?

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Two good options:
amzn.to/2CLsvfn
amzn.to/2RwSBec

[@Quixotic91101]

I usually wore socks and stashed wallet in one when I was in the Navy. But two wallets is good idea.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Wallet in socks...I like that.

[@bobcarr2464]

thanks

[@JeremyClodfelter]

[@gibnoma9100]

Is that Magnum P.I.? Nice shirt bro.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

LMAO!

[@jlacson74]

Hahaha. LOL.

[@jamesmulroy4919]

Why even carry your SS card or driver license medical card with you no need for it. I just carried cash in 2 pockets big cash in one and a few 20's and coins in the other.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

I don't do that anymore. This is an old video.

[@jameskolle8096]

I know that this is a old video but thanks

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Welcome!

Basically just be organized and smart. Diversify and don't keep everything in one or two places, even more places the more the better. Daily manage your wallet/valuables. If you don't need something when you got out, take it out of the wallet or whatever. But if you have to carry do it how this guy did, in a place that is less noticeable even when patted down and have a fake wallet. Have even more fake wallets at your apartment to replace the fake wallet.

[@JeremyClodfelter]

I like the fake for fake! Lol

[@louisharvel275]

Typically how much cash do you carry around during a day?

[@JeremyClodfelter]

Usually no more than the equivalent of US$100. Often, it is much less than that.

[@louisharvel275]

Thanks, btw I found that 2nd wallet on Walmart.com

[@cosmyccowboy]

You don't have a money belt? I'm here in the USA and I haven't carried a wallet in over 20 years! Just my cash and drivers license folded in my front pocket

[@JeremyClodfelter]

I have a money belt now Jeff. This is an old video.
