It’s funny to think years ago losing your wallet would be the biggest nightmare. But nowadays, most people might opt to lose a wallet rather than say their computer or smartphone or have their facebook or gmail accounts hacked.

With our lives turning more digital and everything from class projects, to receipts and business correspondence and deals stored via email, it’s easy to see why that’s the case.
