Thanks for sharing. Only around 18% of adults in the world receive a salary into an account. In places where employers have made the switch from cash to electronic, it's not uncommon for staff to complain that they've been overpaid, sometimes by as much as 50%. Too much cash goes missing between employer and employee. It's expensive being poor, but being unbanked makes it a whole lot worse.

>complain that they've been overpaid Is that a typo?

  Not at all! When people have been paid $x/month in cash for years and suddenly they get paid $1.5x or $2x electronically, some honest folk have been known to complain that the new electronic system must be broken. Whereas what has actually happened is that now its harder for people between the employer and employee to pocket the cash
