Really? One of the BEST things? That sets a pretty darned low bar.. I mean, I've never once been even remotely inconvenienced by the US way of handling money and payments.

Yes. It's one of the best things. The first time you are sitting with your friend and you want to transfer some money to them - and they get it as soon as you tap the button in your bank app -- you will get it.

It's normal to people in Asia. But weird to people in the USA and Canada.
