I'm not sure what you mean by "What does it happened later" but yeah I lost my wallet this past summer. It had like $400 dollars along with a bunch of important personal information. Another time I lost it, I had over $800 dollars inside. That time at least someone mailed my emptied wallet back to me.

oh yes.
I lost it a long time ago, But I was lucky.. I left it at a tricycle (a form of transporation here in my country) and the driver was nice enough to contact me and return my wallet to me without taking anything from it. I had about a thousand pesos there, plus of course all my identification and pictures and stuff. What I did was gave him half of the money. Why? cause it was already lost. The money I gave him wouldn't have been enough to cover for all the other expenses I would have incurred if the wallet wasn't returned to me. Like affidavit of loss for my IDs and atm, the fee for replacement of these cards and all. The sentiment of the pictures inserted in my wallet.
He didn't want to accept it but I was insistent and since he had a son with him, I told him it's a gift for the kid, treat him to jollibee or buy him a toy. It's for him. He finally accepted

yes, you said it. that's why i insisted he get the money plus it's not often that you find people with such true hearts. I mean he didn't even take a single centavo off of my wallet. He could have just taken the money and say that when he saw the wallet it was already empty but he didn't so I thought it only fair that he gets his reward/prize
BTW, Thanks for choosing me as the best response =)

Yes i lost it once. I had to renew my National Identity Card, my credit cards, my bus cards, driving license....its a mess really, those paper works are better than the loss of the money, unless you are carrying really a big amount of money with you, but i wasn't lol.

I lost my wallet in January and I'll be getting it back in a few weeks.
I was going crazy not having it and wondering where it was. Now I know where it's at and that I'll be getting it back in a few weeks, I feel much better!

I lost my wallet on holliday in another country once. I just noticed it was gone when travelling home. I did not know where I'd lost it. Not much money in it, but there were some photos that ment a lot to me. I was very upset that I'd lost them. 2 weeks after I got home I got it back by mail! I'd left it in my hotel-room. The staff at that hotel are some of my favorite people!
