I know this might just reflect financial culture differences across countries, but let’s give it a try

Edit: as a clarification, I meant credit card compared to debit, not to cash

    I do this, too. Anyone with any sort of self control should do the same, unless they prefer cash.

    Using a debit card is too risky.

      I feel exactly the same way. The only case I would recommend a debit card is if it’s at a separate institution from your main savings. That way, you’d only lose up to whatever that account has.

      I’ve seen too many stories of people losing their savings because of a compromised debit card.
