Who cares? They don't use real money. It's all counterfeit. When you receive cash from a fucking blind man, are you going to say 'hey, this is counterfeit', thus shaming both him and yourself in the process? Cripples rely on empathy, just ask TAMAR.

How do blind people know how to count money?

Counting is basic education. If someone tells them the denominations, they can add them up.

If they can see that paper money that they hold, how do they know what it's value is :huh:

If they can see the money, then they aren't 100% blind.

It's "geniuses".

Not a bad question, warhammer. If they're using paper money, they have to rely on the cashier to get the right bills. Which raises the possibility of unscrupulous cashiers, but that doesn't happen too often (I hope). For instance, at my store, to deter theft-- both by customers and by cashiers-- security cameras keep a close eye on each register. If the cashier rips the blind guy off, the cameras will see the cashier either pocket the money or put it in the till, and the till will be off.

They usually get someone to fold the corners for them in different ways, so they can feel which bills are which.

Nice system you got there, cashier-boy. Looks to me that you know the ends-and-outs of that system enough to pilfer a small fortune from your blind customers. No wonder you can afford a PC to waste time on the internet on the salary of a cashier. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........

(j/k ) I like to make funnies...heheheheheheheh

all atm's have braille on them, for example and also distribute 20's pretty much universally for currency. Anyone that would even consider cheating a blind person out of 20 change...well then this discussion just got stupid again.

Blind people see better anyway, in the long run. Everyone has to be more honest, careful and helpful around them.

Reminds me of the time I was in Harvard Square, and was having some sort of psychotic interlude which made me confuse the social status of a poorly dressed college girl drinking coffee on a cement wall. I thought her cup was for handouts (and that she was homeless, because of her appearance) so I pressed a five into the cup.

Talk about pissed

In an interesting development, a Federal judge (can't remember who) has ruled that the Treasury Department has been violating the law because of our paper money being uniform in size and colour, and this judge didn't buy the argument that different sized bills would promote counterfitting. (Wouldn't different sized notes detract from obvious counterfitting, such as reinking a $1 as a $100?)

 

[Conchaga]

Simple. They use a credit card.

DID YOU KNOW, STARGUARD, WHEN THE ADMINS CLEANED UP THE FORUMS THEY MOVED EVERY SINGLE THREAD OF YOURS (OVER 500) FROM THIS FORUM TO THE BADLANDS, BECAUSE THEY WERE SO SHIT & WORTHLESS?

 

[starguard]

It does my heart good to see you still can't forget me even months after our last interaction.

It's like having a little faithful yapping pet chihuahua. Good Luci..good boy! *pats him on the head*

Different denominations of currency have different flavors. $100 bills taste like filet mignon, $50 taste like dark chocolate, $20s taste like York Peppermint patties, $10s taste like home-grilled cheeseburgers, $5s taste like french fries and $1s taste like my armpit. Well, $1s you get from me taste like my armpit, anyway.
