 @784e76eb I mean… it doesn’t really but I everyone has their preferences. What about bank notes though? 
 @af151d0b Coins end up everywhere and have virtually no value. Like the 1 cent coin here is a perfect example of why things are bad. Plus they are often quite honestly disgustingly filthy.

Bank notes are just a fiddle to deal with. Plus the idiotic notion of making all of them the same size and color here…

Nah, I find it to be a hassle to be honest. I’ve avoided cash for decades now:)

Checks, them I loathe. 
 @784e76eb I’ve never had a check but I know what they are. I feel like they’re on the same level as physical money for me.

I get the money being a mess part though 😅 
 @af151d0b They are so worse. And so insecure! I take a CC over them any day.

Writing a check for a large amount is very nerve wracking to say the least. 
 @af151d0b @784e76eb Cheques are such a pain, which makes them wonderful for paying bills that you particularly resent 😜
