> Carrying cash is exactly how you lose it all

If you can even put your hands on it in the first place. A $100,000/year salary is roughly ~$6000/month after taxes. Where are you going to go to get 60 $100 bills every month, even if you could protect them?

Getting detained police after receiving your weekly/monthly cash payment would look very suspicious to Officer Friendly as, surely everyone would agree, only criminals carry that kind of cash around. There are many twists and turns down the slippery slope.

Jeez. I take "lots of cash" out of the ATM, because when I do it, I do it all at once.

Also... drug dealers are cashless, they are using Monero! :D Ha!
