Thinking about the little things here. If i didn't want to carry cash around, how would i pay for rent? Can you have a cashiers check cut at the local bank to pay the landlord? or mail it? If we rent from locals, do they go to the bank? Do they have bank accounts the money can be electronically transfer to? I wouldn't think it would be safe to carry personal checks either. How do you pay a gardener, maid or pay at the local markets? I don't even have a debit card right now, only a credit card.
