B/c everybody wants to add 4-5% for cards.
Large purchases, that crap adds up.
I'm writing a check for stuff like that.

Considering the animosity toward (R) politicians in DC, I wouldn't be using a credit card with my name on it and signing anything.
Also, the tab for a table for six with drinks at a decent restaurant is going to cost $600+ not including tip - for brunch. Nothing is cheap in DC.
Not trying to be an a-hole here again, but I thought we were trying to save the country money and now we are talking about a woman DHS that rides horses and carries three large around to pay for $600-$700 lunches in DC?
We have a way larger problem than we thought.
How can these people expect everyone else to behave when they are spending some folks check on a lunch at noon on a Monday?
Laughable, all of it.

Me.
It's too big for my wallet, but I have one in my work bag and one in my car at all times. My wife has one in her purse. We're mid 30s.
It's not that we use it a lot, but it does come in handy.

Daggum you're salty!
Maybe she paid her lunch tab on her own dime? I certainly can't afford that for lunch... but again, who cares?
Why is this so triggering for you?

Exactly.
I might only write 1 or 2 a month, but they're still handy.
I ususlly wait until there"s a long line behind me @ the grocery store...

I would assume based on the left’s love of illegal immigrant gang members that Noem would currently require a team of agents and not just one agent acting more as an individual bodyguard type.
Even if she left the bag at the table to go to restroom or visit another table with agent (s) forced to adjust location and coverages away from table, which Noem should remember she isn’t in South Dakota anymore, an agent or agents should have reminded her about bag or retrieved the bag themselves if they were not set up to watch table when she moved elsewhere. Discipline up to termination depending on the specific responsibilities of the various agents.
If it was stolen at table with Noem still at table or definitely had agents assigned to watch the table or where purse was even if she moved elsewhere the agents plus whoever hired them or recommend them for assignment and/or managed them should be all be immediately terminated.

Pro tip... Take a couple of the bar codes off of certain foods so they have to do a price check. Also if they ring up an onion or something dispute which product it is...

It’s unnecessary risk.
It’s a risk and may be an unnecessary risk for some especially those without a security detail, but no one deserves to get robbed.

And then I have to put it in the check register right then, and of course, strike a balance...

Its fricking stupid to carry around $3,000 in cash.
Why?
Literally in the OP. The reason it’s not a good idea is because you could lose it or get it stolen. And I know, everyone is OT rich. But that’s a lot of cash to just turn up missing

He probably wasn't reporting it, but that wasn't my problem because the bank was reporting the withdrawals and I was getting a signed receipt from him. Saved me $15k+ on price.
Only time I’d have that cash on me would be en route to buying a boat or something.
Anyway, all of those times I felt like I was trying to run drugs or something - had a pistol in my pocket and a 92sf sitting on top of the cash stack in the center console. No way I'd roll around with that kind of cash for no purpose. All that said, DC is expensive.

I am not salty at all.
Spending $600 on lunch is a waste of money. I dont care where you are eating.
If you are going to talk shite like this administration does, walk the fricking walk. Live like everyone else lives. Thats how you gain favor, not by going to $700 lunches.

Everyone should have cash on hand, in their house, hidden, preferably in a safe at all times.
That goes without discussion.
Me carrying around thousands on my person, naw. You can take my cards etc. good luck. Have fun.

Thank you for delivering this story! After a Monday grind at USPS, I needed a laugh.
