While everyone and their pet is focused on entering a cashless future, one rather public New Jerseyan understands that value derives from what you can literally hold in your hand. This includes your spouse or accomplice. Money should carry weight. I may admire the ballooning digits in your bank account, but if I can’t see a metallic flicker from your pocket when it's time to pay, what’s the point?
Why have money if you don’t really have it? What do you slip a maître d’ if not an actual item that requires polishing? IOUs don’t work in this context, do they? Finances belong in your checked luggage, not your wallet.
Smart people realize that currency should inspire awe, as well as mild hernias.
