It's going to be less than 20 years. Your phone, or whatever mobile device we're using, is going to have all of your stuff on it too. Your cards, IDs, etc. It's basically going to render a wallet obsolete. This kind of stuff is already taking over in Japan because convenience and ease of access are insanely important in their autonomous social structure.

This isn't to say I'm a fan of this shift. I try to always keep at least a little bit of cash on me because you never know when you'll need it.
