OpticalMoose@discuss.tchncs.deto FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early)@lemmy.ml•Weekly Discussion: 26 May 2025English1·1 month agoJust a weird post to close out the old week. I recently learned that my uncle doesn’t use a bank account. I think he has one now, but doesn’t really use it. He’s gotten paid in cash and paid for all his stuff in cash.
This is no small time operation either. He’s a logger, so he’s bought and paid for several logging trucks over his lifetime, and a house too. He just handles all his money in cash.
I’m almost the exact opposite, I don’t touch cash unless I have to. The first truck I bought, a 1995 Ford Ranger for $13,995 was all paid through direct withdrawal from my paycheck. I really don’t know if that money ever physically existed.
It’s the worst when I’m not looking for a specific font, just scrolling for something that fits what I’m working on. Lots of those fonts don’t even display on my system, I guess because of my language/location.
