Does money even exist anymore? →
• ∞
When I purchase something, I swipe a debit card. I hand no money to the cashier and s/he hands nothing back to me other than a slip of paper (and even that’s optional). I never carry cash. Somewhere, out in space, numbers move from point A to point B. That’s how I pay and get paid. It’s all theoretical and makes me wonder, does money as I’ve always understood it even exist anymore?
It’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who thinks this way. See also this followup.
