hmmm i actually very rarely carry cash with me these days, which probably isn't a good thing

when i was babysitting i (and thus being paid in cash on a regular basis) would carry upwards of $100 with me.

depends on the situation. If I were say, gambling, I would take no more than I was willing to lose in cash. Typically when I go on vacations I carry $200-$400 in my wallet just in case I need it, plus on vacations it's easier when splitting bills/hotel costs with people if you have cash. Day to day though I typically carry from 0-$40.

The largest amount of cash I've ever carried with me was about $1000.

On an average day I have $100-$200.

I rarely carry cash, so it's hard to say. If I needed to make a big cash purchase, however, I would carry however much is necessary.

The largest amount of cash I have ever carried with me was 650$, which I carried about a mile and a half from the bank to my landlord's place to pay the rent, in broad daylight.

As to how much I WOULD carry with me, it depends. If I'm planning on walking somewhere (more than a block or so in a residential neighboorhood), probably not much more than that. If I'm just going to hop in a car, go the the atm, hop back in the car, go somewhere, walk from a parking spot right outside into a building, and give it to someone (say a car payment), I'd be comfortable carrying a lot more, maybe a few thousand (assuming I had that much). OTOH, walking alone down an ill traveled road, or at night, I would carry as little as possible.

Usually just a dollar and some change if that I use my debit card way more often.

When I do carry cash, it's no more than 20$. The most I've carried about somewhere between $800 to $1000, which made me nervous. I get nervous carrying around large amounts of money. I don't know why.

If someone rich wants to see how much I would carry........feel free to load me up with as you can than I would make a run for it

 

[Stravinsk]

The largest amount of cash I've ever had on my person was $10,000. I'd never carry that much around - but I had a very good night at the craps table at the casino. I'm not aware that the casino writes cheques. Maybe they do, I should ask.

Otherwise, normally not more than AUD $150 or so.

Depends on how much I find. ._.

 

[white dove]

Bus fare.


Basically, any emergency money that could get you out of a jam... considering you don't owe any loan sharks or Snoop Dogg.

 

[radhead]

If it's just in my wallet, no more than a hundred or so.

If I had a hidden pocket that went under my clothing, maybe a few thousand.

 

[Marycita]

I almost never have cash on me.

 

[Obzocky]

Out of choice £20, otherwise the most i've had on my person would be £500 and it was an awful, awful experience. Hate having a lot of money in my purse, constantly fret about losing it

i rarely carry cash unless i know i'm going to be spending it soon. i went to a restaurant, sat down with my food, and then realized they don't accept debit cards. i had to get up and explain to the woman that i thought they accepted plastic. i had to leave and go find an ATM for cash.

really people. this is the 21st century. get with the program.

 

[nikkipompom]

5,000

 

[Manda_24]

The most I would carry I think would be a couple hundred, I don't really have a reason to carry that much. I normally have about $40-$60 with me though I usually use my debit card.
