It sucks to have no banking service but since I barely have coin to spend anyway I adapted well. What I feel after accomodating lifestyle changes is liberation both in being out of the financial and the societal consumption values systems. I wish I could never use banking again, only pure dirty cash bills but it's nigh impossible to truly eschew the convenience and access of an international online purchase mediated by family and a credit card.
What are your thoughts on a cashless society, given your experience.
