There is no place you can wear a camera around your neck and not look like a moron. Old people do this.

The neck strap is the greatest invention in the history of photography (just edging out the automatic diaphragm).  It frees up your hands and keeps the camera in a perfect position for glancing down to confirm shutter speed, aperture, focus point and depth of field.  When you're ready for that quick snap, you just raise your pre-adjusted camera to your eye and press the shutter release.  You've captured your picture quickly and easily, and the neck strap does its job til you're ready for another photo opportunity.  I would tell you how long I've been using one, but that would only confirm your point.  By the way, your name reminds me of one good reason to keep my hands free.
