RE: Credit card only

in LeoFinance3 years ago

I feel the same and with the kids i feel its important to show how the world has real money aswell and not only plastic. With our teenagers its also a way to learn them value, and yes sometimes people are chocked that you get out cash instead of a card, well call me old but 40 + years made me say take it or stick it where that coffe is going.

I just remembered that in the netherlands its not allowed to pay cask over a certain amount because of the law on money laundering

Sort:  

I was raised learning the value of money and of earning it by one's actions and efforts rather than taking handouts. It's good to be teaching your kids the same in a world that seems to value more, more, more over anything else.

I don't think we have that same law here, about the cash, although one would probably never walk into a place and want to pay large sums with it. I paid $7,500 in cash last October when I had a few accessories put on my truck and they were like, come on! I didn't want the government knowing what I was spending. It's none of their business. So, cash.
