Implication of "have done"

I you say "I've lost my wallet.", I guess that might imply "I have no money with me right now." or something like that. However, I'm wondering if there are other implications from or interpretations of the sentence. Can I freely guess what "have + done" sentences mean, depending on circumstances?
