Thanks, ToomuchStuff. Interesting perspectives from Warren Buffett, and I love seeing The Real Frank Abagnale. I love the movie.
Sounds like you've handled cash/debit/credit pretty well!

Warren Buffet Is cautioning against credit cards when people pay high interest on the balance. There’s nothing wrong with using a credit card if you pay off the balance every month.
Catch Me If You Can Was a great book,, so much fun! I thought the movie was awful.
I still write a few checks during the year. My horse's board and some vet bills are paid with a check. Car insurance, DMV stuff, car repairs (small business, so I try to spare them the cc fees). My cc is automatically paid from my checking account.
During the pandemic I used my debit card to withdraw cash from my bank's ATM. This was the only place I used it and it got hacked with Amazon purchases. The bank took care of it but when I got my new debit card, it tucked it into a drawer without activating it.
This week I went to a Walmart and went to use the self-checkout and none of them accepted cash. I hope others won't do the same. Usually I'll pay cash for most purchases in-store unless it's an unexpected purchase. If I can get a discount for cash I'll go for it.
I'm a heavy user of Apple Pay. I have an Apple Watch and it's so easy to use it on my Watch, rather than pulling out my phone. Some gas stations accept Apple Pay at the pump. I use it a lot that way. Don't have to worry about putting my card in the pump
I use online payments for all my bills.
Keep a small amount of cash on me for small stuff - McD's coffee, that sort of thing.
