How about introducing a VISA Bitcoin card? Banks in other countries offer it now. ECAB would be smart to invest in Crypto and offer different options of purchase to its customers.
Let them invest in crypto when you are the only depositor.
Avoid Credit Cards and Bitcoin like the plague. Credit cards encourages you to spend money you haven’t earned, and Bitcoin encourages you to send your hard-earned money into the ether.
I’ve worked to hard to dash way my money to speculators on whimsical fantasies. Tarl!
Debit cards for me all the way. When me money done it done! Having a Debit card also encourages me to save as well.
But shhhhh! The so-called global financial experts won’t tell you this. But I will. Shhhhh! 🤫
@ Brix,
Credit cards aren’t bad IF people can use them responsibly. Most people think it’s free money and of course we all know that there is no such thing. That is why I am a big advocate for parents teaching their children how to save and schools teaching financial literacy.
Debit cards are good as you can only spend what you have BUT if you use it on the wrong website or wrong ATM and your money disappears then you have zero recourse so please be careful.
I hear you @ Be careful, that’s why I only use my Debit cards on a couple of reputable sites. And you are absolutely correct about being an advocate for teaching children financial literacy and how to save.
I try to put away 10% of my income and treat it like a bill. Much respect 👍🏾
