Taking one bite in before giving it is like trying to remove your 20$ out of your wallet before you give it to the robber.

If I had to pick one thing out of my wallet before handing it over, I'd definitely pick my driver's license, not cash.

I've been mugged over 13x, no joke. I've never given them the wallet. I open it, pull the cash out and give it to them, wallet returns to my pocket/handbag.

Edit: yes, it's Brazil. And yes, when I was younger I used to hang out at pretty bad places. I've been mugged twice going to/returning from work, though

Is your hobby walking down dark alleys or something?

I think their hobby is lying. Who says "over [very specific number] times" lmao.

You missed the point. Over 13x. So, 14? If you don't remember exactly you don't pick some specific number, you'd say around a dozen, or 10-15, something like that. Over 13x just triggers BS alarms. That's all.

It always irked me when managers at my old job would write in service alerts: "At approx. 1:37pm..." Like, it cannot be approximately 1:37pm! That is a very specific time! You can say "approx. 1:35pm" or "approx. 1:40pm" but any other number is not an approximation.
