Cash

For the people who all love to stash
in their mattress or in holes their cash,
we're about to be screwed.
Pay your debts; store up food.
Paper money too soon will be trash.

Hello Andrea … even banks down this way don’t hold much cash now. If you want a large amount it must be ordered. It has stopped bank robberies but now it’s on line scams - thank you Andrea - Lindsay

Yes so I still pay with cash and hope it will be around. I dislike all this digital and tapping the cards. Always feel it is not secure and with all the scams these days it makes me rethink technology. love phyl

You may be right, Andrea, I do not know, but I certainly hope not. I love my greenbacks! On the other hand, I have observed that more and more places are only accepting plastic...and no cash!

there is nothing to BACK the greenbacks. They are simply making money like it grows on trees. A great reset is coming, my friend. I just do not know when, and thought i do not want to believe it, it just seems logical to me.

At the rate the powers that be are borrowing money, I shouldn't doubt it.
