I'm over 30 and I have never owned a checkbook. Checks are backwards, insecure and prone to abuse with no real guarantee for whoever gets one that he will actually get money, which makes them even more worthless. If I were a bank I would do everything in my power to get rid of checks pronto.

You're clearly not from North America then. :( Not that I disagree with ditching them, of course.

  Indeed. I never owned a checkbook until I moved to the US. Why does everybody love them here?

    It's a convenient way to give a person more money than you carry in cash. No one I know has a personal card reader they carry around (yet).
