What’s in Your Wallet?

The triggered response was both visceral and immediate… and with good reason.

Over half of all Americans are essentially broke and have been for many years.

“How much money Americans have in their savings accounts—nearly half have less than $500” (cnbc)

That’s why news outlets jumped on the DHS Secretary carrying $3,000… as if she had to explain herself.

Increasingly, america is pitied.

How fucking old are you? Who carries cash around? You are like an old geezer who carries his entire paycheck around in his wallet.
 
I see Kristi Noem says she had about $3,000 in cash in her wallet.

I’ve got $3,650 in cash, plus 150 Euros and five $100 Visa gift cards…. Which all totals to around $3,000 USD.

What’s in your wallet?
~$90 cash. 1 debit card, 1 credit card, and the rest of the usual bullshit.

You can hear the change jingling on his pockets 10 minutes before you see him.

Sundowners struggle with newfangled technology like ATMs and Amazon.

I usually have around five grand on me… I’m fond of old motorcycles, cars, trucks, guitars, amps, stereo gear, watches… and nothing speaks louder to a motivated seller than cash.

Hobby money.
 
Anyone carrying over $20.00 in their wallet is asking to be robbed. Most people carry at least one credit card and an ATM card so if they want to buy something it's no problem. Only a fool which is what Noem is would carry that much cash when she has credit cards. Add to that she lost her security badge. The Native Americans in South Dakota are most likely laughing at her now.
