But people would if outages with cash backups were frequent enough. On a side note, I am baffled by the number of otherwise activist people to whom I expound about the big problems of a cashless society who just shrug to say "hey, what can you do?"
- mytailorisrich 3y agoYeah, always wise to keep a couple of bank notes in your wallet, just in case. The worst I see these days is people who carry neither cards nor cash, just their phones because "anyway I have Apple Pay/Google Wallet for contactless"... and then they use that to buy an electronic ticket on their phone for their commute to work. The day they lose their phone far from home they are instantly stranded and homeless, and they can't call anyone for help because they don't actually know anyone's phone number.
