  1. What country is this? And how is $40 going to hold you for days at a time especially if you have family to take care of?

  2.  @The.Dude.Abides.  . Free only exists for billionaires who get billions in subsidies and tax breaks every year. In that case its ok because sheep worship their masters.

  3. I carry my debit card but don't use it for daily expenses because if my account is hacked I don't want thieves to have access to my savings. I use a credit for all daily expenses. Not only does it built credit and give me rewards but if it gets stolen or hacked I just reported it to the CC company and its taken care of without it impacting me financially. I probably should start carrying two credit cards instead of a CC and my debit card. I can't remember when was the last time I needed to use cash for anything.

  6. As a poker player I find that part irrelevant to the topic. Sure, as a poker player you might want to have enough cash available in case you get a last minute invite to a cash game. But for the rest of the population that's irrelevant.

  8.  @floridaman7  . Exactly what I'm doing. I work a more or less dead end up but my company has great benefits with a profitsharing plan that fully vests 100% next year for me. At that point I'm leaving because my vested balance will jump $30k between now and next year. I have enough experience and education to get upwards of a $15k-20k base pay increase but I want that $30k for my retirement account as well.

  10.  @dnguyen787  . Sure, saving and investing in the market is usually a good idea. But there is no one-size fits all investment strategy for everyone. Someone who is 60+ years old with limited savings probably shouldn't be heavily invested in the stock market. Again, most people have no clue how to invest and much less understand all the components and variables that affect their retirement savings/investments. I doubt 90% of the population understand the various investment vehicles and asset classes available to them. Dumping money into the market and hoping for the best isn't an investment strategy in my opinion - its gambling. That said, it would take many years for most people to learn all this. Its not just a simple matter of being lazy or doing research. But to your point, sure, if someone is too lazy to do any research, the only viable option for them is to invest in a mutual fund or hire an advisor which is what wealthy people do.
