A lot of people DON'T like carrying around huge wads of cash with them to pay for everything and use credit cards instead.

I guess some people disdain credit credit cards because of lack of self control, or their credit is too awful to ever get one.

Or are like my brother, who at the age of 60 has never had one, and never tried to rent a hotel room, ride on an airliner, or rent an automobile, in his entire life. But is nonetheless very sucessful in the business he owns; and he owns his own house, and except for his mortgage, he is 100% debt free.

But he always has a huge pile of cash with him in his wallet.
