Regarding the "all-in-one" effect- my wife does have book with all the other credit cards- Kohl's,Best Buy, and all the airline cards.... but its too big to carry, she keeps it in our office (THANK GOD)- now, how do I hide that......
It did remind me I need to remove my SSN from my wallet.
So-
- adding deadbolt to door between garage and house.
- investigating Alarm system
- double checking all doors/gates each night
- checking credit report for activity often
I've noticed a lot of people carry their SScard in their wallet and I was taught the same. It wasn't until I had kids of my own and got their ssn's that I saw the wringing on the rest of the paper you punch the card out from said "do not keep in wallet".
I have all my cards like that in my important documents binder in a gun safe bolted to the floor and wall in my house. For someone to steal it they would have to rip the safe off the floor, then get it down the stairs without squashing themselves
