How Much Cash do you carry with you in your wallet?

[Thunder Dan]

I just wonder how much cash people normally carry on them- I hardly ever use cash- but I usually try to keep $40 on me. I get made fun of by my older coworkers because of how little cash I carry- so how much?

[Shelly]

none--I live by the almighty debit card.

I have a buddy that carries at least 5 to 600 in his pocket at a time. One day he had 2 grand in his pocket.

[CosmicCowboy]

I usually carry 5-6 hundred in twenties in my pocket and keep another 2K in hundreds in my truck. I don't keep any cash in my wallet...too easy to steal/lose...I keep cash in a front pocket...

Sounds kinda dumb. I've lost several bills by haphazardly tossing them into pockets like that.

I try to keep anywhere between 5-40 dollars on me, just because you never know when you won't be able to use your card. More often than not though, that doesn't end up happening and I just put it all on the plastic.

What part of town does your buddy stay in again A?

Yeah man he washes his money on accident all the time. I think he washed 400 the other day and a few 20s were destroyed. He is smart with his money, doesnt owe much and makes good money but yeah I always tell him not to pull out a wad of cash all the time. He always insists on paying when we hang out, which I dont complain lol but yeah I always tell him he carries too much cash.

[ATRAIN]

LOL nice try

[JudynTX]

I keep at least $40 in cash on me.

[phyzik]

i usually withdraw about $200.00 on payday but still generally use the debit card for food/gas. The cash is for my fun time or when I want to buy a new "toy".

[Spurminator]

Usually none... At most, $10. Unless I need cash for parking, etc.

[Spur-Addict]

I usually carry 5-6 hundred in twenties in my pocket and keep another 2K in hundreds in my truck. I don't keep any cash in my wallet...too easy to steal/lose...I keep cash in a front pocket...

Just carry your wallet in a front pocket, that's what I do. I carry nothing in back pockets.

[CosmicCowboy]

I need the extra room up front for a higher priority item than my wallet :lol

You some kind of survivalist? I would never keep $2500 cash in my pocket and car unless there was a loaded .45 on my hip.

I usually try to have between 20-100 dollars. Sometimes more if an occasion necessitates it.

Can't go to the strip club with debit cards.

[CosmicCowboy]

Aww fuck you guys. I can't stand waiting in line behind you while you swipe your card, punch in your PIN, wait for it to connect, and then fumble around signing the receipt just to get a fucking cup of coffee at the convenience store.

And it's not a richer bragging moment. I do quite a bit of buying on Craigs list and when I find a "first come first sell" deal there it's pretty effective to say "I will be there in 20 minutes with cash".

[1369]

I'm married with two kids under the age of 7.

What is this cash of which you speak?

[Blake]

If I'm going to podunk, TX, where they don't know what a credit card looks like, I carry more cash, but other than that, $20-$30 plus my debit card usually does the trick.

The only thing I hate about debit cards is keeping up with the receipts to make sure my account stays balanced and to make sure I didn't get charged incorrectly.

[1369]

Can't go to the strip club with debit cards.

That's whay they have ATM's in the strip club...

Or, you could always try swiping the cleavage.

[Blake]

I'm sure there'll be a day where you can slide your card between the cheeks.......($5 minimum)

They have ATM's right when you walk in in case you dont have time to stop while on the way.

Well I keep change and loose bills in the car in case I need something like that. I wont use my card under 10 bucks. So you carry 2 grand in your car for craig list purchases. How many times have you actually done that?

[ORION]

Dope Man Dope Man
Yeah thats me ....

[florige]

Do any of you guys ever use the credit feature on your debit cards?

Probably 4 times in the last 4 months. I'm building a house at the ranch and buying used/cheap building materials when possible. Plus, I pay the people I DO hire to help me in cash. So, yeah, I like to keep plenty of cash available.

If you were in Houston right now with no power you would be well and truly fucked trying to buy food and water with your debit card.

Well I hope you keep that cash safe, I would hate for someone to break into your car and jack all that cash. I just got my truck broken into 3 nights ago and they jacked my radio and work out gloves. MOTHERFUCKERS!!

True but everytime a Cane was heading our way, we used to always hit up the bank. I also keep a locked box at home with some cash just in case.

Yeah no shit, I had my bowling ball, 2 pairs of Oakleys (which they even grabbed and threw on the seat), clothes (Still moving from my old place), and 2 40 lbs dumbells. They jacked my radio which is what they were prob after in the first place, and took my workout gloves. That prob pissed me off more than the radio. I really liked those gloves and they dont sell those anymore. I didnt notice till yesterday when I got to the gym, I was like wtf where are my gloves.........AWW MOTHERFUCKER!! They even took my arm sweat band.

[Spur-Addict]

I think you a little deceived due to the fact that your pants may be laminated to your skin. Or, maybe you just have a large amount of keys that don't have a carabiner. I don't know--:lol

Like a block down from the police station.... I was in my plain clothes at my car getting ready to get something to eat and dude rolled up on us with a sawed off telling me to give him my shit.... The dude on the other side didn't have anything so my partner at the time would had been ok, the dude with the gun was on my side so I would had been the one getting my head blown the fuck off....:lol

I wouldn't go that far, I just tend to wear pants with more room, a bit more loose. I'm 6'5, a bit over 240lbs, I tend to look at pants from my perspective alot. I have junk in the front. I think I like that saying, "Junk in the front" :lol

[ATRAIN]

I have a few times but that was in my early 20's when I lived with Mom and Dad and all the money I made at the record store was spending money. I didnt care I just wanted to have titties slap against my face. I did get in trouble from girlfriends when they saw the receipt hahahaha. Kind of hard to hide what kind of place charges that much in atm fee's.

I don't ever intentionally carry any specific ammount of cash.

I too buy and sell on Craigslist a lot, if I need cash I go to the ATM, when I have cash it's usually from selling something on Craigslist.

When I'm off duty I keep in under my seat of my car. I always wondered what would had happened if I had had it on my side and he would have found it.....

Yeah dude, hit up the atm before. Either that or borrow from a buddy. I have lend 100 bucks to a buddy once and we hit the atm up on the way home.

[mrsmaalox]

Sometimes I have cash, sometimes not. I pretty much use the debit card for everything. But the absolute best thing I have done is gotten my son a debit card with a preset limit. I just go online and add his allowance, don't need cash. It's great to drop him off at the mall with his friends and tell him to pickup some socks or shirts and not have to go in to pay or have the cash for him. It's very nice.

[florige]

So he just got away and left you with shit in your pants?





:lol Yeah pretty much. We went looking for them but they ran through some alleys.

[JamStone]

It depends whether it's a hooker night or not.

Usually between $50-$200.

Plus, I generally keep $40 in emergency money in my wallet as well. Fortunately, never had an emergency where I've needed it. I think that same $40 is about 3 years old.

Well he earns $20 per week for pool maintenance-- he does a good job and is much cheaper than a pool service. Then he gets $25 to mow, edge the front and back lawns--that varies from month to month of course. So I suppose it's not really an allowance because he earns it all. Then if I need extra jobs done we negotiate the price. My kids don't get paid for their routine house chores.

Ok I did get busted stealing from her purse when I was like 9. I was getting money out cause she told me too, but I took more than I was supposed too and then she asked where I got money to get the extra shit that I bought.

At my house you'll help out for free and fucking like it. I refuse to negotiate the monitary value of menial household chores. No one fucking pays me to drive you around from friends house to friends house and no one pays me to clean the shit off your ass or find a doctor for you when your sick. I've never once been paid to help you with your homework or have a parent teacher meeting. You do what needs to be done and its expected of you. Period.

The flip side is that if you want something go ahead and ask for it, you'll likely recieve it, provided its small. If we're talking big ticket items then and only then we'll map out some addition work to save up half or a third of the cost. Then we'll cover the rest.

There are jobs within the family that go beyond normal helping around the house. Both girls made about 2k this summer doing preping for diaper cakes and baby shower gifts for the wife.

As far as the money management of things. I don't use chores to teach that. Both our girls do the books and bills with me or the wife. I don't know many 12 and 13 year olds that could pay all their parents bills if needed. Ours can. When a big purchase is made or a loan is written they're involved in the process. The 13 year old can explain "mineral rights" better than I can. They understand how interest rates are affected by credit scores and how a simple interest loan works.

My ways might be unconventional.

No. If I need more I either get more or he'll give me the debit card. :downspin:

I rarely carry cash these days but I do keep a $5 or $10 spot just in case. My kids have chores such as washing dishes, trash, doing the wash, ironing and cleaning out the chimney on holiday nights. They get an allowance if they are not under punishment.

Yeah I had it out. My partner actually had his on him at the time, but the dude on his side I guess was nervous or something because he said that he half assed checked him. He only took his phone. Dude took my wallet,my phone, my movies everything accept my car.....:lol

Did you catch him?

[BacktoBasics]

Not really. My kids don't get paid for menial household chores either. They are expected to carry their weight.

Cool


LMAO ya think?

Man I would have pulled out my piece and blasted his head off!! Man I hope I never work where I get to carry a gun, someone will die for sure.

Thats neat that you are educating your kids on real world stuff...unfortunately they won't ever get that kind of stuff in school...

Now WTF is a diaper cake? Sure doesn't sound very appetizing.

They should be getting that kind of education at home anyways. My kids each have their own accounts and have their own budgets.

School should teach a life skills class. Teach you how to balance a checkbook, work out a budget, write a resume, conduct yourself at a job interview, etc.

[BacktoBasics]

They should be getting that kind of education at home anyways. My kids each have their own accounts and have their own budgets.I certainly wouldn't argue that but its something that probably deserves a full years worth of education. Most adults don't know their own shit from the lint in their toes.

I was thinking the same, hopefully when they get older they will carry that knowledge and not get into debt.

Yeah I was wondering what that is too but was afraid to ask lol.

B2B's Thoughts: There are shitload of mexxicans in Texas. Mexicans have babys left and right. Messsicans love to go over board with stupid baby planning. I'm trying to convince her to offer this kind of shit to more than just friends and family.

Seriously man, I have a trigger finger. When I was young in my bb gun days someone always got shot. I know your not supposed to shoot other people but I couldnt help it. I almost shot my dad once. I dont know what was going through my head, I just picked up the gun aimed at my dad and fired. I missed him and dropped the gun. He turned around and asked what the hell was that. I said I dropped the gun and it went off LMAO!!

Nope. :lol

Strange, he acted like he disagreed with your position, then turned around and said that he essentially does the same thing.

Personally I totally agree with what you do, they do meanial household chores such as cleaning their room, taking out the trash, etc but get paid for the types of services that many people would pay someone else to do.

I can't disagree with anyone that would have their child cut the grass as part of their non-paid chores, but I also can't disagree with someone that would pay their child for the same work, in fact I agree with it.

[2Blonde]

Sometimes I have cash, sometimes not. I pretty much use the debit card for everything. But the absolute best thing I have done is gotten my son a debit card with a preset limit. I just go online and add his allowance, don't need cash. It's great to drop him off at the mall with his friends and tell him to pickup some socks or shirts and not have to go in to pay or have the cash for him. It's very nice.
That's pretty much what we did w/my daughter except now she has graduated to a true debit card. It's tied to a checking account since she has a job now. It's been awesome since she started working at HEB b/c now I don't have to to do the shopping anymore. I tell her to pick up whatever I need and then go online and transfer it right into her account.:toast

At the moment I've got $6. That's what I have left over from a few weekends ago. Like a lot of people have said, the debit card is easier. I use that too because for every ___ I spend with it Wamu give me ___ back. I forgot what it was, but it was something like $6 bucks last year. So, that's a lunch. I take out what I need if I know I'm going somewhere where cash is more convenient. At the moment the only places I can think of where I go that it is more convenient is a night out drinking with friends, tubing, or downtown when I know I'll be paying for parking and I'll need cash.
