Paypal owns (snake) VENOM, XOOM etc. and this is a most fraudulent large corporation out there along with Google, Facebook etc. I sent $50 via Xoom to a relative and it never arrived and after months of back and forth I gained nothing back. Paypal is known for a lot of fraudulent activity and for protecting criminal fraudsters and scammers. Long story. Have proof documented with screenshots etc. All this involving "digital" money. Never trust credit or debt cards processors and digital payment. STAY AWAY. AVOID CRIMINALS! CA$H IS KING!!! CA$H BANKNOTES ARE NATURE.

I wouldn't miss it, I cannot remember when I last paid cash for anything. It will never happen, though, because it would discriminate against the poor who cannot get a bank account, credit or debit card.

We are a long way away from physically cashless but I rarely use it so missing it wouldn’t be a problem

My lady friend "borrows" from me via Cash App. It works well that way.

I think I may have some cash in my purse but I have no idea how much. Never use the stuff.

It'll never happen. Or shall I say, I dont think a completely cashless society will happen within the next 300-400 years. Even with that being said, only thing I use cash for is for the occasional Mega/Super/Powerball lotto jackpots.

I do always keep cash on hand though. $100.00 in one dollar bills in each car and a couple of hundred also in singles at home. Learned the hard way after the Northridge Earthquake that when the power goes out, you cant use your card or phone to make any purchases. Cash is always the only way in these cases.
