    I used to carry what we in the navy called a liberty belt. Basically you carry small bits of cash in your pocket but your cards and larger bills are in that. Basically its wrappped around your stomach like a concealed gun belt.

      They have runners belts now that just you just slide on and it's stretchable material. it's super comfy, you don't know it's there, and you can get one with a zipper on the inside so it's literally impossible for someone to steal. Same exact concept and they're cheap.

    Asian girls really are the most beauin the world, but after years of wanting one as a partner, I've come to understand that beauty is only skin deep. Inside, their culture is completely alien to me and although there are thousands of things I prefer compared to western culture, the things I don't agree with out weigh the stuff I do. 😢
