I agree but if a writer looses his 50 cent bic pen in the middle of nowhere, it can still be a drama. The price of things and being able to afford to loose stuff are not always related to each other.

Certainly losing a canteen in the desert, or a passport, or under certain circumstances, a condom, is not good! You've got to look after your stuff!

We've kind of veered off topic a bit, but all I'm trying to say is that people are comfortable traveling with different stuff. Some people wear a $5k watch, others bring $2k in camera equipment, some bring, well, nothing. It's all good and I don't see why people criticize others for carrying stuff that they would not.
