Today's question is from @Evadig:

Do you know how to write a check?

Yes.

 

[Shabby Chic-Hens]

Yes

 

[Brooks_]

Yes, but I don't have any. Between online and phone - just so little use. I'll buy a money order/cashier's check for the rare cases.

Yes, but I don't have any. Between online and phone - just so little use. I'll buy a money order/cashier's check for the rare cases.

Same. I can write one (and most people my age can't) but I rarely use them.

 

[LavenderDaFlerf]

I can but I never use them.

 

[Evadig]

Yes
I pay almost everything that comes in the mail that way .

 

[sourland]

Well, yes, I can - have even bounced one early on. I also know how to pay cash.

 

[notabitail]

Yes. I can write a check. I used to make fake checks out of paper and write on them.

 

[tripletfeb]

Of course. They actually taught us in 7th grade. We had a business section in our math class. Much more useful information than finding x or solving for y. I write checks a lot, to pay a few bills and to put money on my son's lunch account.

Why waste fifty thousand hours on find x and solving for y? Just y? Writing fake checks sounds more fun.


(I get there's a reason they teach you to do that. If you're gonna give me a lecture on why, put your pitchforks down.)
