How I saved my card but lost my finger!

The card looks exactly the same but uses fingerprint id technology anywhere on its surface. Once you hold it with your thumb it gets activated for no more than 1 minute which is enough time to be inserted in the ATM machine or be swiped. You still have to enter the pin but even if you enter it correctly the card can't be used if the fingerprint didn't match. Unintended consequences? Hmmm, let me think. Your card's safer but not your finger. Thieves inspired by Tarantino and desperate for your money might cut it and that bloody sucks :D

ATM sterilization service

I read about good hygiene and how necessary it is to prevent the spread of viruses, germs and the flu and I am thinking, wouldn't it be a great idea if ATMs would sterilize/disinfect the ATM card and the cash we deposit and withdraw from them? ATMs won't save mankind from the next epidemic, fine, but that's one less source of spreading worms and germs around. And cash is dirty because not Everyone knows how to launder it properly. Corrupt leaders try hard to teach but the masses refuse to learn. Not everyone can be a good money-launderer so better to sterilize the money supply :D
