Try to explain that to the nutjob that races around you to end up at the same

The problem is that many obviously don't care how much gas they're using.
They just write a bigger check to VISA next month. They want to drive that
huge pickup or SUV as fast as they want and whatever it costs is... whatever
it costs.


Blink blink....people actually buy gas with Visa?????

Cash..is king


Costco doesn't take cash. So I buy a cash card, and use that. Or
either the charge or debit card.

OTOH, some people don't pay attention to what they are spending.
Money is an abstraction, and "credit" cards more so. People are able
to go through life and never see "cash" except at the ATM. Their pay
goes to the bank via direct deposit, they charge everything, pay their
bills on-line, and never see cash, and never link what they do, to
"money".
