gg as I have previously said MrC Ash is king and long live this kingLast few times I went to pay with my debit card at restaurant or butcher they had a surcharge even on eftpos... so I have been going to the atm to get cash and pay in cash.
What do I see when I go atm? usually I am not the first or last in que... strange thought cash and atms were dead according to the media

JohnDe and no doubt the businesses love the cash also.I was in a medium sized country town yesterday, stopped for lunch, walking past the bank I noticed a well-maintained ATM machine and people withdrawing cash.
forgot to mention my local Thai restaurant has 10% discount on cash.. love itJohnDe and no doubt the businesses love the cash also.
We had lunch in Toodyay 2 weeks ago and was asked cash or card. A bit cheaper if folding was handed over. A no brainer
Very hard to account for cash in this "cashless" society. The local food food we patronise never says no either.I noticed thr other day it went straight into his wallet.forgot to mention my local Thai restaurant has 10% discount on cash.. love it
am looking at MrCash's cousin MrBarter for alternatives could be useful in the area i now reside ( population around 300 with many only home on weekends and holidays ) ...26 km to my local bankgg as I have previously said MrC Ash is king and long live this king
Yeah.am looking at MrCash's cousin MrBarter for alternatives could be useful in the area i now reside ( population around 300 with many only home on weekends and holidays ) ...26 km to my local bank
but the government desire is to go cashless , ( because commodity prices make coins worth more than their face value ( 1 , 2 5 , 10 and 20 cent pieces )Yeah.
But in a functional village, we need a unit of account as barterers may not require each other's offering.
Joe my not need a horse shod even though I may want to acquire a dozen of his duck eggs.
Cash solves this, if we trust the untrustworthy. In reality, we may need to develop some other peer to peer unit of account.
And there may be a bit of a key in what you say, becoming somewhat self- sufficient.but the government desire is to go cashless , ( because commodity prices make coins worth more than their face value ( 1 , 2 5 , 10 and 20 cent pieces )
also many villagers are semi-self sufficient , several have chickens some have ducks , geese there are even domesticated pheasants , not to mention sheep , goats , and cattle and this property used to raise ostriches ( cattle now ) timber for building and heating etc. , and some solar panels ( off-grid and on-grid ) and fruit trees and herbs
Did some work for a bloke a few years ago who only used Barter Card.am looking at MrCash's cousin MrBarter for alternatives could be useful in the area i now reside ( population around 300 with many only home on weekends and holidays ) ...26 km to my local bank
Wayne the hard part is we still an income of sorts to pay for what not is tradeable.And there may be a bit of a key in what you say, becoming somewhat self- sufficient.
Maybe not a path to acquiring status toys, but survival in the anti human WEF world... Perhaps even true contentment.
Bohemians rule, okay?

Pity we can't barter with Govt depts, though I might be soon because of road width requirements.Exactly
my parents grew up during the great depression so 'barter ' included work for food ( and sometimes accommodation ) i still have grandmother's ration books , so one might wonder if food was traded as well ( and of course Australia had a thriving black market during WW2 )Did some work for a bloke a few years ago who only used Barter Card.
I had never heard of it before so was pretty wary.
Told him I only understood MrC Ash
WHAT ... union officials ??Perhaps I should engage one of those well experienced 1st people who specialisein extortion of Govt and individuals
I've never used it but it was (is?) a legit thing as such.Did some work for a bloke a few years ago who only used Barter Card.
