Ask Fear & Greed: Why haven't we gone cashless?
Listener Lisa asks: You mentioned on the podcast that the RBA Governor has committed to keeping cash in the economy, even though fewer people are using it, and it's getting uneconomical to move it around. Why are we so wedded to cash? Who is actually still using it? Why don't we just bite the bullet and go cashless. Surely we'll end up there one day anyway - so why not now? Join Sean Aylmer & Michael Thompson as they answer listener questions. If you have your own question for Ask Fear & Greed, get in touch via our website, LinkedIn, Instagram or Facebook!
