Man, that’s some hyperbole. Ain’t nobody believing you haven’t seen a check in 40 years. It’s not for every day use but there’s always something that needs a check for some dumb reason, like setting up direct deposit or paying the emergency plumber. Stuff comes up.
Believe it, bub. In backwater places like Brazil people have moved on from credit and debit cards to fully digital systems like Pix. Meanwhile my town in Tennessee will take only cash or cheque for taxes.
Other than getting paid for a few labor jobs out of high school, I haven’t seen a cheque used ever, so I can believe it. Banks give sheets with direct deposit info, and any tradespeople I’ve hired have taken various other forms of payment.
For reference, this is in Canada though, so not the default.

I’m not American, but
I’ve literally never seen a check in my life, and I’ve been around since the late 80s.
I got paid by check for a gig on Christmas Eve.

I’m so used to my country being late to this type of stuff that i only realised pix wasn’t an international thing until just recently.
Also how dare you?! Only i get to call this backwater place backwater! /s
Is there a c/suddenlycaralho?
I mean, fully digital isnt a massive flex. “Cash is king” is a saying for a reason
