re: Do you still write checks?

Rarely and only if required.

Just to your mom. I don’t need that digital footprint.

Do you still write checks at places like the grocery store or pharmacy

Last time was like in 1997.
People still do that?

Just one and that’s only because the garbage people covering my area refuse to join this century.

It’s amazing how hard it is to make yourself write that check every quarter. They usually get a five dollar late fee out of me just out of laziness/disbelief that they still require a mailed check.

$2k property tax bill, huh? Must be nice.

My utility bill to a rural MS water association at deer camp is the only physical check I write and mail now. I try to pay them a years worth of bills each time to minimize the agravation.

Everything else is autopay or credit/debit card.

I write checks from my office. I’ve got those big arse foot long baller checks.

Something about the process of writing it out, recording it in the ledger, and then hearing and feeling it being torn out is a combination of nostalgia and having financial freedom. I don’t need to do that, but it’s fun.

I Venmo too, but sending someone $1000 Venmo has no charm compared to the art of writing out the check.

Venmo is much easier though.

My mouth writes checks that my arse can't cash
