Quote:
Having something tangible makes you aware of your spending.
For some people, yes. Not me though. I am a spreadsheet junkie!

Quote:
When you remove that people overspend and get themselves in debt.
Not those of us who are responsible for our actions and know how to maintain a digital budget.
Quote:
People with credit cards have larger amounts of debt.
Not me. I pay my card every month. My house and car are paid off, too.

Quote:
People who switched from credit cards to cash tend to have less debt.
Perhaps, but I can neither confirm or deny that from my experiences.

Quote:
I'm not saying do away with credit cards, but cash spending can result in more responsible purchasing.
I am certain there are people who would benefit, but it feels like that is the wrong cure for their disease. There are many digital tools to help control spending, if people are willing to use them. And they will have to in a generation or two from now because cash
will be gone by then.
Enjoy it while we live, because when we are dead, cash will not be far behind.
