money ///

in a world where cash was always king ,and gave you the upper hand in bartering or knowing exactly where you stood money wise ,,
all that is now changing ,where as now business,s and many shops and restaurants are changing to card only ,,
how will this affect you , will you now be in control of your finances ???? or will it be the card company ??/
i have always used cash and any business that does not take it then they lose my custom simple as that ,
i always add a tip according to the service i have received which is the right way,but with card only then you will be paying a service charge no matter what the service was like,,i dont think so some how,,
companies are using covid as the main reason for this ummmm i dont think so ,,
so how will this affect you ???

Nice to see you back in action, Ed hug

For me, cash is my way of paying, unless it's larger amounts as I don't like carrying a lot of cash in my handbag.

But, I don't like leaving "all" my money in the bank for the banksters to use either! scold
So I draw it all out.

My eldest son does the same as well! He keeps all his money under the mattress.laugh
An added thought..
With bank cards we are being controlled and they know your every move! grin
very true dani ,,your bank card is your foot print in life ,they know exactly what you are doing and where you are,
privacy in todays world is very hard to control ,even your mobile phone is tracking your every move and relaying info about you all hours of the day and night grrrrr
I know, the phone too!
I always make sure my location is not showing and I also don't take it with me when I go out.

You also need to be careful with all those new apps they want you to add to make "your life easier"...so they say! uh oh
Within 10 years phone banking and paying through your phone will be the norm. Once the US dollar has collapsed after another 4 years of Trump, phone payments will become the norm even faster.
Moneyless transactions are a way of tracking your every move.

They track by phone, surfing the web, using card, etc., etc..

Privacy as we knew it has gone. Most people give the information freely by posting their pathetic lives on social media......

That's the world we are living in. Comply or you will be left behind.....
@Lafonda..true! thumbs up
Just as bad as posting on here then. Big brother is watching you.laugh

If I worried about every single thing in life I'd have been in a box many years ago.

Life is for living.handshake
i choose not to comply with money matters full stop ,, it is my money and the way i spend it is my choice,
i have never had a credit card, firstly as i have never needed one ,and secondly why should i pay over the odds for the best deals i can get by using cash,you can not get a deal with a credit card,all my life if i wanted some thing i saved up until i could buy out right , and that also included houses that i have purchased,so i owe no one nothing ,which makes me a very free soul ,and not tied to any money making machine out there,,
My son has the same attitude as you have Ed!

He buys everything in cash..just bought himself a BMW..new!
He has no credits and no cards either.
Smartphones allow you to be tracked, only those who are doing something wrong would be affected, payment by phone is convenient and far more hygienic than cash.

Why is anyone worried that someone else knows you bought a toilet roll at wallmark yesterday for 3 dollars?
I guess those that want to hide their purchases, hide themselves behind a mask rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
The law is ignorant and slow which is one problem with society changing too fast. It still hasn't adapted to what the internet is so you have either lawlessness a law that doesn't work or tyranny. Surveillance to meet the fact that the courts don't work anymore.
rizlared,,,it is about having self control ,and not being controlled by a piece of plastic ,that charges you for doing so ,,simple really ,,,, the only people who would have a problem with that can not save nor manage their money ,,,the majority of people are up to their eyes in debt ,working their butts off to make a small dent it ,,,that is not living that is existing.. smart people who manage their money walk around care free with nothing to hide from ,,
