3 Tips On Protecting Our Cash
9A0-144 Although some of us have opted for walking with cards, instead of cash, some of us have opted for mainly using cash. Nevertheless, whether in our hands or banks, we can protect it from being stolen and three ways in which we can do this are following.
Guard Our Pin
This is a well known one, but surprisingly, some of us still do not practice it at every transaction that we make and that is, protecting our ATM pin number. For example, we may go to a machine and instead of using our entire body to block the machine, thereby preventing unseen eyes from viewing our numbers, we simply jump in there and begin pressing.
Additionally, when we are at the cash out, we are "afraid" of insulting the person standing behind us, so we just punch in the numbers.
The pins are important and if someone is desperate enough to learn what our pins are, they are desperate enough to pick our pockets and take our cards.
This rule of protecting this number does not only apply for those whom, we do not know, but also for those that we do know.
Put It Aside
Sometimes, we may leave home with the intention of giving some money to someone in need and during the Christmas season, we may desire to help those who are depending on the Salvation Army and other charities.

Have you ever heard of the story in which someone who seem to be a homeless person asked another guy for some money. The guy stopped, took out his wallet and was looking for some change and, before he could even find it, the homeless guy snatched it from his hands, took out what he wanted, pushed it into his clothing and then handed the guy back his wallet?

Whenever we withdraw money from the bank, before leaving it, we should put it away in a safe location, then move on.
Sometimes, during lunch hours, we may decide to buy some lunch and some women have the practice of walking to the restaurant etc. only with their purse in their hand. We may or may not have a lot of money in it, but, it is not a good thing to do, it could draw unwanted attention.
