I don't think this is universally true. Both my kids weren't too fussed if their pocket money was cash, or deposited in their accounts.
It is not just the kids, the adults around also smile
I hate cash. I just have a card wallet, and a note clip if I absolutely need it. Otherwise I carry no cash.
I don't really use cash, I have a card wallet also.
But for pocket money and going to markets and the like, I use cash. Cash is just a tool, and sometimes it is the best tool for the job.
Absolutely. Which is why I think having a digital currency is great, because it adds another tool we can use.
Those that want to can use it, and those that don't can continue to use cash. I don't agree with some of the naysayers that digital cash will lead to the removal of physical cash.
Agreed, at least in the short term. Physical cash will be around for a long time yet.
