Since I started traveling a lot three years ago, I have started to implement some Murphy's Law type backups in case i lose my passport, wallet, or get robbed:
1) I have 2 copies of my passport in my suitcase, and my carry-on.
2) once I am checked into a hotel, my passport never leaves the room, unless absolutely necessary. I carry a copy in case I get pulled over by the cops and they want to see it.
3) Under ""emergency contact"" section of passport, i have my email, phone number, and my mother's phone number also.
4) I have $300 in cash in a pouch in my suitcase.
5) I made copies of all my credit cards, and have the non-800 #'s of the credit card/debit companies written in a notebook, and also in my smartphone. You need the non-800 numbers if you call the U.S. from abroad.
6) I made a back-up copy of my NJ drivers liscence also.
Anything else you guys have done?
