Most men love their routine and everything that forms part of it.
In this viral post, a woman shares a picture of the current state of her husband’s wallet.
Despite buying him a new wallet months ago, he refuses to make the switch over.
I bought my husband a new wallet probably 5 months ago. He has no desire to switch over to it yet. The left is his current wallet. My dad has done the same thing. Men, is this a universal thing? Do you have a hard time giving up the old, faithful, falling apart wallet? 😅 pic.twitter.com/CWST58U5zR

If it ain't broke, don't fix (or replace) it, right?
I think for most men it comes down to utility.

Wallets are like underwear, you keep them until they turn to dust.

My husband has a favorite T-shirt that is so old I can see through it. It has holes in it. I’m sure he will wear it until it evaporates.
