Oh, btw, they might lose all your personal dat to some Russian hacker, but I'm sure you wouldn't mind the courtroom paperwork after all the credit cards are cancelled.
Thanks, but no thanks. Your vision is quite terrifying. Cash is King.

Never a problem here. I've been using credit cards on-line since the inception of "on-line purchases" (12+ yrs?).
Never a problem getting a mortgage, either. Have about seven or eight (can't remember how many I have without going on-line to look them up...paperless statements, you know).
Cash is King? How are you going to mail cash?
Oh, right. You're going to get in your car, drive to the post office. Wait in line. Purchase a money order (with cash you just drove to the bank to wait in line to withdraw) then mail it and wait 3 ~ 5 days for recipient to receive/deposit. Then
another 3 ~ 5 days for shipping...heck. What did I order? It's been so long, every package I receive from the mailman is like Christmas!
