    New trend reveals younger generation is ditching this common accessory

    The young should also think about the control that can be applied to digital wallets. Imagine one day being told No it's not your day to buy petrol (or food or anything else) and suddenly your digital wallet is turned off for a couple days. This is the way 'a cashless society' will operate...
