It's soo nice put on a jacket/coat/pair of pants that you haven't worn in a while and there, in one of the pockets are a few $100 bills you forgot to take out when last you wore the item.

Mine usually has a receipt for a very expensive dinner, and I realize it probably wasn't worth it. 🙁

I haven't done that since back in the 70's to impress people....In todays world I deal mainly with plastic cards. You know you can't even rent a car around here anymore without a Credit Card, they will not accept cash!!!

I only have a few grand in cash on me at any one time and that's only when I collect "rent". 🤔

I always had my renters do post dated checks for 12 months. People know you are carrying a few grand on your person could be dangerous. People have been known to kill for a lot less.

Actually I like coins more than paper money. They tend to be decorated nicely. I have also some old coins, which have no monetary worth but still look nice 🙂

The new coins however in Sweden and other Europe are difficult to tell apart - almost same size and colour.

Perhaps it is just me but I find our nickels and quarters close to the same size.

Well the 10,20 and 50 EuroCent are somewhat similar, but still nicely distinguishible I think. I normally don't really bother about the copper ones...though the 5 cent is the biggest of those by far.

Most shops in Gothenburg's most frequented street. 'Avenyen', do not accept cash anyore, only cards. They have a sign saying 'No cash'. An elderly man behind me queueing for tickets at the cinema, who I understood was making a rare visit with his wife to Gothenburg city to see the film 'Van Gogh', got extremely annoyed, shouting: "Why the - - - - do we waste money on making new cash if we cant use it...???" Somebody offered his help to use his card instead.

I would like to send some money to my family in austrailia , but money laundering laws and greedy bankers make it very expensive £50 per transaction. anyone got any legitamate methods of sending money at a reasonable cost.

It rarely happens with money, but for me, it frequently happens with mints.

When converted to tax dollars it solves all our ills but the more of our own money we have of it the worse we become.

LOL.
