5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Maybe December? So we all take money out of banks, at least current month salary, and spend cash only. I think that is something that shouldn't be hard to do and it would show if we, the people, have any power left to make positive changes for the future or we can just surrender and eat bugs.

Edit:

If I’m trading my only true value, my time, then I want to have 100% control over it, not to depend if some bank would freeze my account and I lost 1/3 of my life irreversible.

I don't plan on using cash, nor do I plan on eating bugs.

Maybe we could all wear our shoes on our hands and sing showtunes in the airport parking lot.

What the fuck are you talking about?

It's so very interesting, I recently walked into the bank that kicked me out 15 years ago. They actually knew who I was (small town bank where I grew up), they crawled so far into my ass to get me & my company back that day, I could taste their hair styling product. Very satisfying just to say" remember, you kicked me out because of a few bucks over my limit? Yes? Good! Today you learned something. Bye" Pure Bliss. Those assholes. Edit: Germany here.

85% of transitions in Australia are cashless... I don't think many people care about cash here, I certainly don't, everywhere takes cashless methods here.

Just buy gold, don't keep the money in the bank.
