Being a pimp is cool and all, but traveling like one is not suggested.

When traveling make sure to keep small change in your pocket so that when you go to buy something, you are not pulling out a wad of cash….and receiving unwanted attention.

For-shizzle my-nizzle…..

Ran across this travel tip on the internet and thought it was way too funny not to post….here it is:

“Don’t pet Bison”

Ha!  Sad that we have people in our society that would benefit from a tip like this!

A continuation of yesterdays tip of the day regarding ATMs……place the money you want to access abroad in your checking account.

Many ATMs abroad do not give you a choice between savings and checkings…..they choose for you…..and they always choose checking.

Before you leave on a trip abroad, make sure your pin number is only 4 digits, as most ATMs in other countries do not accepts longer pins.

Also remember that ATM is an American phrase and not understood in the rest of the world!

In an age where there are thousands of passwords, combinations, pins, etc. to remember, it is hard to keep it all straight. 

A good way to make them easy to find is save them as phone numbers in your mobile phone.  

For example, your password for your online banking is 54236, save “Aunt Greenbucks 542-360-1111″ in your phone (0-1111 used purely as filler to make it look like a real number).  

Only you will know Aunt Greenbucks is not a real Aunt and even if Robert Langdon from the Da Vinci code gets you phone, he won’t know what digits are real and which ones are just filler.

An easy but hard to crack way to hide passwords!
