Do you welcome the moves towards a cashless society ?

As I recall, keeping cash on your person at all times made you a target for theft. No one ASKED me if I wanted to go cashless, but it was gradually imposed on us, for "convenience".

@4meAndyou People don’t have to flash their cash. They can hide it if it’s a lot and they think there’s a good chance of being robbed for it. In their shoes etc.

@cherokeepatti I see people being mugged on television all the time, and whenever I get out of my car, I look all around me, because I know that I could be a target.

@4meAndyou You can get mugged even without any cash on you. They’ll come up and grab your purse. Put the cash somewhere else like in your sock if it’s that bad where you live. You don’t want your credit or debit cards stolen either. They can also hack them when you are standing in line or filling up with gas at a gas pump. It happened to somewhere here last month. They went home and checked their bank balance within a couple hours and already 6 debits had been made after the hack.
