Cash gets stolen just as often, also if you happen to lose your cash, often times, that means its basically gone, which is not the case with electronic money, so if you're in an emergency situation and you've lost your card, you could still access your money. That would be more handy in an emergency situation. But that's my personal opinion each to their own.

We experienced a big problem here in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. The island went into a blackout so no one could get their hands on cash and couldn't use their cards because the internet and cell phones also went offline. This is one thing that people don't take into consideration. A bank is not going to give you money if they can't access your account to see if you actually have that amount in your account and a store is not going to sell you something without cash if their card service is offline.

@G Espania Sheeple are unbelievably gullible and lazy. Anyone who does their home work can see through this. Fractional Reserve banking in and of itself is a corrupt system and we tolerate it. But that wasn't enough for TPTB so they stopped backing currency with gold (what does that tell you?). Now they are preparing the younger generation for the next step. It's not an accident that you're asked "Do you have a chip?" when using a card (so you'll say to yourself "I have a chip" over and over until you think nothing of it). They are simply waiting for the older generation (most of the resistance) to die off before implementing it (making it less trouble to do so). Well, guess what. Chip implants are next. The real reason: In case someone "bad mouths" TPTB their chip will simply be turned off (you will have a "social credit" score - points removed for jay walking or whatever - where your rights are infringed as a means to make you comply, China is already doing this). Once your chip is deactivated you won't be able to purchase a stick of gum.

How many times have you heard stories of people coming home from a holiday to see that their purchases while on holiday have the most outrageous exchange rates attached to those purchases?

That's when cash becomes very important. But often when the power goes out, the stores close their doors. Because they can't operate cash registers to ring things up manually or with bar codes. But emergency situation, cash is king. Really I use cash only for emergency: some place doesn't offer checks or card or I don't want to open a tab at a hotel or bar or club. I do like the choice with cash. But I really like the logging of a transaction with cards. And the safety of not losing or getting robbed money... someone stills my card number, I cancel the card, and any transactions made are removed from my credit card bill or debit card if ran as credit.

That is so interesting that they decline cash. I hope that never happens in South Africa where I live. Here we do use ATM machines and pay by card in supermarkets, but many use cash. We can also withdraw our cash from our own banks at the cashier where we pay for our groceries. It goes into the same card machine and is just a withdrawal...many people here withdraw cash at the supermarket instead of having to go to the ATM or bank. We can even pay for our water & rates or telephone bill at the cashier in the supermarket. I pay for parking in shopping centres, with cash into a machine, or by card.

World without money is an extraordinary documentary! I truly did appreciate it so much. Thanks a lot for sharing! Keep it up!

[@mmmarcosworld]

What is your opinion? Should we live without cash?

[@lalarebelse5985]

are you realy a sleep its about control pay cash let our privacy free and let banks not control everything. wake up its an terrible

[@mmmarcosworld]

@@lalarebelse5985 it's true and unfortunately in countries like the Netherlands it is already a reality, for example in Schiphol airport you can't pay something in the vending machine with cash anymore, just with card, which is absurd and ridiculous.

[@lalarebelse5985]

@@mmmarcosworld we still pay cash here. But indeed its disapearing and even some shops they want only cards. But i keep paying cash as same as some as my friends. So if they cant accept it they lose a custumer. I will not be pushed by them to let me pay by card. Cash or kiss my .... i will go to the next shop.

[@mmmarcosworld]

@@lalarebelse5985 good job, continue like that, cash is much better than card. I am not going to pay for example something that costs €0,50 with card, it's ridiculous, right?

Yes, I think you are right. We have to be aware and watchful (careful).

It's important to note that some countries generate an enormous amount of money through "Seigniorage" (the profit that a government makes by producing physical money when their currency is highly desirable). For countries where seigniorage is significant, it's very unlikely that they'll ever do away with cash. The US government for example makes billions of dollars a year by making and distributing physical money. It's pretty hard to argue that they will ever want to give that up.

you still need cash to teach children how to count money, save money and how hard it is to earn it.

[@siberiangirl1941]

They already don’t know how to count, or be responsible- so many children have grown up with their parents credit card & don’t even realize it’s money. I’ve been a hairdresser for 30 years, I’ve seen this for decades
