Whoa! That's not fair, I'm sure I can't get nearly as much money for
my butt.
I need to go to the bank about once a month anyway (I'd think most
folks do), that's when I withdraw enough cash to last the month... if
after all these years I don't have a pretty good grasp on about how
much pocket money I need for the month (plus a bit extra just in case)
then I'd better enter a nursing home and sign over all my affairs to
an administrator. And I don't carry the whole month's allowance with
me, when leaving home I take what I need for the day (plus a little
extra for just in case). I think carrying cash is far safer than
going to ATMs, especially if going to ATMs every day... that's many
times a month you openly advertise that you're carrying cash compared
perhaps to my one time ("perhaps" because most folks go to a bank to
conduct other business than to withdraw cash... anytime someone uses
an ATM they are vulnerable to be followed.
I find habitual ATM users a PITA to be with, every time a decision is
made to do something that costs money the ball busters have to drag
folks around to find a friggin' ATM... and they never have money so
they are constantly borrowing small amounts they typically don't
always pay back, either they forget or forget on purpose (same
result), and I hate to have to remind people they owe me a couple of
bucks, and then the parasites tell me to wait till they get to an ATM,
DUH.. they didn't have to wait for the money I loaned them, those
deadbeats deserve a cacoon inna Joisey swamp. ATMs serve as a piggy
bank nanny for those infantile individuals who can't control
themselves from spending every cent in their pocket and/or are an
excuse to freeload, and serve no other purpose whatsoever, none.
