I'm poor and I usually have at least that in my wallet.
Why would you? I get carrying enough cash for an emergency trip to get home, but that's a stupid amount of money to carry around in something you pull out all the time and risk losing easily. I carry at most $100 on me, but I have more squirreled away in the house in case we need money to flee to Mexico or something.
I go out of state pretty often and even if I call my bank, my account gets frozen almost every fucking time. Do I make sure I have cash in case I have an emergency before I can unfreeze my account.
You don't bank with a company that starts with Well and ends with argo do you? Because those motherfuckers put a security hold on my account damn near every couple months. My card's always getting security holds put on it. Last time I told them if they do it one more time they are losing my account and I haven't had it happen in the several months since.
Unfortunately, that's who I bank with. They've been good to me for over a decade, but if I drive more than 3 hours, they flip out when something is purchased a couple hundred miles away.
I fucking knew it!
I'm telling you honestly I've had them shut my card off without warning dozens of times in places I go to weekly. If I travel, I just wait to hear my card get declined. They even cancelled one of my cards when I was in Chicago for 4 months and the nearest bank was 2 hours away. Their fraud protection is out of control.
