Mine used to have a ring like that, but then I decided it would be more gentlemanly to keep those in my bottom drawer.

And, you are less likely to get a girl pregnant if you keep them elsewhere than your wallet.
What does the fortune say?
Yup. Especially because you won't feel like you're ready for it all the time.
"Allow your curiosity to lead you to the answer you seek."

I hate carrying a purse, because of all the stuff that collects in them, and because it feels like a weakness- something to be forgotten or snatched etc.
So if I carry a purse instead of just a wallet, it tends to be very small and with a strap I can cross over my shoulder.
Right now, there is my drivers license, a ticked stub from a show I went to, two grocery receipts and some cash.
