[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About $200 in my wallet (varies between $100-300).  About $1k in $20s at home.  About a month's worth of expenses in my checking account, and another month's worth of expenses in my savings account (plus savings for some upcoming purchases).

I don't have a local bank, so I'm thinking about increasing my actual cash savings at home.

I will never understand people who don't carry cash with them at all times.  Even if they don't use it for regular day-to-day purchases, it can come in handy if there are banking/credit card/electricity failures and would also be important to have [b]if one were to get assaulted and/or mugged (try telling the mugger that you "don't carry cash" and see how well that works).[/b][/quote]

how often does that happen to you? i'm 60, never happened once to me. [/quote]

Not the PP, but it's happened to me once. I just thrust the entire purse at my mugger. Had less than five bucks in it. He made me remove my watch too. [/quote]
