Yes I am . . . and I still use a checkbook and have an affinity for carrying a couple hundred dollars in my wallet. I just retired from the banking business after 45 years about 11 months ago. It will be a huge, huge mistake to convert to a cashless society.

Isn't that the truth? I love the convenience, but when the SHTF, then what? Back to barter, I guess. Then we'll have to re-create cash. It will sure put a dent in the recovery from the SHTF event. I can see states and cities issuing their own scrip like was common 150 years ago.
