HEY! Get out of my wallet!!

Just from a look into my wallet, you could see that I have joined almost all the grocery store savings clubs. So yes, I'm frugal. I have a Petsmart club card which could tell people that I have a pet and could make me into an animal lover. I'm a Costco member, so I might buy in bulk and that would support assumptions that I like to save money. I keep pictures of family members. One might not realize that two of the pictures are of my parents, being that the pictures are of them when they were my age. I also have a picture of my younger brother, both when he was overweight and when he lost almost 100lbs and became a Marine. My age would be determined by my drivers license and you'd be able to see a picture of me not only on that but my school ID. I have one too many credit cards, and I carry little cash.

Many assumptions can be made with what you would see in my wallet. Obviously, I'm a saver of money, being that the other obvious is that I don't have much of it. I'm an animal lover. I have a very close relationship with my parents and younger brother. There would probably be a guess that I had two brothers, which is true, however, one is older and the only one in pictures is the younger. The two pictures of him are of huge contrast of his magnificent transformation and battle of his weight. My ethnic background might still be very hard to determine since I don't have anything stating what I am. However, one could see that I am of mixed race with the photos of my parents, father being Caucasian, and mother being Asian. My age would be very known, as well as where I attend school.

It's hard to say what people would determine just by the contents of my wallet, but I know there would be much to be left unsaid. I'm a hard worker, I'm smart, funny, what music I listen to and what I plan to do with the degree I'm trying to get from the school they would know I attend. They wouldn't know what kind of dog I had just by my Petsmart card. Or even if I had a dog. I could have a fish for all they know. My true identity would be very vague. Being that everyone has a club card to a grocery store or two. It's hard to delve into someones life or background by just a wallet. Maybe I could take a peek into a friends wallet (with their permission of course) and see what's to be said about them and get an idea. Looking into my own is a little hard, being that I know who I am.
