Heard some good news yesterday. Dan Le Batard said they will keep their radio show going on streaming going forward after they leave ESPN on the 4th.

Do you still use physical cash in amerika still?
For some reason I always seem to have cash on me but I never use it. Only like 20 bucks most of the time but still.

But for the most part everyone's gone card. I actually just started using NFC on my phone and it's a game changer

Some stupid retards working with the electric company sawed through the brand new fiber cables Wednesday and then caused lots of damage to my 1/4 driveway and ran into gate posts and knocked them over. These pieces of garbage should not have jobs. Idk why so many unknown humans and creatures have so much control over my existence and constantly cause me problems on a daily basis.

@mrx is that you?
 
Many grocery stores here doesn't accept cash anymore, there's usually only a few elderly people that still uses it. Can't remember when I had any on me.
NFC through phone or contactless card 99.99% of the time.

One bad thing in the bigger areas in SE Texas is it’s easy for people to steal your card information from card readers in public places. I’ve seen it happen to a bunch of people I know.
 
I've never used a debit or credit card in a store in my entire existence until this year.

I do when I shop at small businesses. The credit card fees cost them money and end up cutting into their bottom line, so I try and pay cash at the mom and pop places. The mega-chains though... don't care obviously. They can afford it.

Cash can easily make its way in and maybe be missed by the tax man... totally by accident of course and obviously the oversight gets corrected immediately. :wink:

Just saw a video of your chosen president sniffing young girls hair and grabbing them and such... Lol why can't your parties get young, healthy, semi normal candidates?
Obama seems to be the only real person the last decades wtf


Even with that aside, the leading candidates were in their late 70s. The older generation does not want to let go.

They're also closely tied to Mega-Corporations who seem to gradually be running the country more overtime. Our government is becoming their puppet.

I've always used cash and only use PayPal and credit cards online. I'm from the old school.
Ahh. I was all-cash for two years starting out with my first job, but managing that physical s*** was irritating to the point that it just became vending machine fodder.
 
Cash is for takeout food, coffee, and sometimes gas.

Pulling out a credit card just to get a coffee seems weird to me for some reason like I'm pulling this huge credit resource for a trivial thing.

Well, that's the problem right there: I use my debit card for everything because it IS my money. It's not necessarily large, but the card is the instrument that allows me to participate in society without having to haul around a bunch of processed cotton slices and metal discs.
 
I don't like using them, especially seeing stores getting their stuff hacked and all that sort of stuff. You don't have to worry about it when handing them pieces of paper.
