How has the internet changed the way you handle money?

I was born in Belarus, a small country, located between Russia, Poland, and Ukraine. We have everything different there, comparing to the United States, as well as the payment methods, and the way people handle money. We could not believe 20 years ago that we will be using the Internet for that. There’s no PayPal and checks payment in Belarus. People get the salary directly to their bank account or cash. My grandparents don’t even have cards nowadays, they use cash everywhere.

Talking about the United States. It’s so easy when you get the salary in check, go to your online banking and deposit it, without going to any branch. Also, it’s easy to send and receive the money from a different bank account, using Quick Pay, Apple pay, PayPal, and many other apps.

I also enjoy having different apps, like Money Pro, Mint, for example, to have your expenses, loans, and savings in one place.
