Similarly to how I believe that everyone (who physically can) should have to work at least a year of retail/food service, I think everyone should have to spend a year chronically ill or otherwise disabled.
(Is that possible? Probably not. Would it make the world a better place? I think so.)

is there a way to explain to my "no excuse for laziness" family how executive dysfunction works? how autism and ADHD works? how they're not quirks or funny but often quite painful and distressing? (genuine questions)
i'm going to start crying if i have to talk with mom about my future one more time
(more of the rant in the tags. sorry)
#and yeah for the record we do have autistic/ADHD people#my mom is the kind of person who watched some tiktoks and went 'i think i have ADHD lmao'#and my aunt is the kind of person who thinks there's no such thing as an inability and that 'we're all a little autistic'#🙄 give me a break#i told my mom that i refuse to work fast food or retail ever again#(my exception is a quiet place like a small bookstore. not indigo)#and she worked fast food for over a decade and is like 'well i'd go back if i had to'#that's nice mom but i'm not you by a LONG SHOT#like. sorry but i was in so much mental and physical pain working customer/food service#and you think that you know when you actually don't know and don't even want to try and understand#honestly even if things DONT go according to plan as of yesterday i'm still gonna set a goal for myself#to get out of the house by next summer#because honestly fuck this shit i'm so mad and i grow more and more mad with each passing day#like yeah you respect my sensory difficulties but do you respect me when i can't do much more than lie on the couch on my phone?#you respect the fact that i'm autistic and have ADHD but do you understand what that means for me as the person with those disorders?#and not what people online who know AuDHDers say?#do you understand that there are in fact things i am unable to do and things that i used to be able to do but no longer can?#i'm so fed up and frustrated. legit started looking at apartments and jobs yesterday#(context: aunt is going to try and move to the US to be closer to her partner next year and mom and i can't stay in the house ourselves)#(so mom asked what my plans are and i told her it really depended on the next few months)#(but honestly i don't want to get that job. i want to finish my associate's and leave. i'm done.)#(and i want to move out of this house filled with people who respect me but refuse to try and understand it from my perspective)#vent#actually autistic#actually adhd

Thinking about how people think retail work is "easy", the idea that "unskilled labor is a myth", and some discussion/discourse I've seen about workers preferring to do sex work over retail. And I think many people just don't realize that retail work has a physical danger to it – and no, not just from other people.
Exactly what people do in their jobs will vary depending on the business, but as for me? I work with sharp metal and plastic at high speeds. Heavy objects could be dropped directly onto my head if I'm not extremely careful, and even then, all it takes is a slip of the hand. Due to our refrigerators and freezers, I am jumping between temperatures several hundred times a day, which leaves my body suffering from the whiplash. I am thankful to have a manager that enforces breaks, but my job takes a toll on me even on the mildest of work days. I could get seriously hurt, and a lot is already being asked of me.
"Retail/fast food/etc. is unskilled labor –" okay but I am not selling expert labor to you, I am selling my well-being. I am being paid to do not just the things you don't or can't do, but to damage and risk my body and overall health in these specific ways so that your day might be a little better.
And honestly, I'd be fine with that, if I got some recognition for it (in both pay and general attitude). I am fine with a little risk and damage so long as it's for proper compensation – I don't view this work as demeaning by nature, and I take pride in my skill at doing it. It's just that I wished others around me cared more about this side of my job.
On a similar note, restaurant/fast food/etc. workers are not just being paid to make and bring out your food. They are being paid to risk oil burns, regular burns, scaldings, being stabbed or sliced, their hands being mangled by equipment, their fingers being crushed by machinery, any number of diseases that food can carry before it's prepared, and death if something goes wrong with the gas. All for your convenience.
It doesn't matter if it's unskilled, or if "anyone can do it". A good salary is one that takes into account what one is sacrificing and risking to complete this job. It takes into account the damage to one's body and the everyday dangers they are in. Salary is, as people know, payment for energy and time, but it is also a reimbursement for the expense of putting oneself in harm's way, and a person's salary should reflect that.
This isn't meant to shame customers. I think it'd be a little silly to shame people for taking on my services when I am well aware of the risks in them (although I acknowledge that gets complicated when people have to take these kinds of jobs regardless of the risks, due to desperately needing money). It's more of a perspective I don't see others talk about often. Even before factoring in shitty bosses, crappy work environments, and the like, these sorts of jobs have dangers and cause damages that should be acknowledged. And people should be properly compensated for taking them on.

saw a post abt how working retail or food service is more important to not being a loser than doing drugs or having sex and while i have a hard time imagining what being a loser even means in this context (i mean it's purposefully vague) i get op's point. op is saying that having worked those jobs is more important than those other things, has a bigger (positive) impact on one's personality, but isn't saying that you had to have worked those jobs to not be a loser. it's not a condition, just something that helps a lot more. but then the amt of people in the notes being like "it should be mandatory to work these jobs at least for a bit" or "everyone needs that to develop properly" or "you can immediately tell when someone hasn't worked these jobs" or "working those jobs makes you appreciate other people's time and effort bcs in that position your time and effort is taken for granted" or "working those jobs gives you empathy for these workers"......... like. i have some admittedly quite limited experience w service work but my dudes.... what about people who due to their disabilities cannot work those jobs. do we really wanna be out here saying people who are disabled in a way that prevents them from doing these jobs (or prevents them from being hired for these jobs) aren't "properly developed"? do we want to condition people's empathy and appreciation for other human beings on working retail/food service/similar? do we want to insist on it being good for people because it "builds character", thereby supporting the harmful notion that suffering is somehow always noble? are there not people who have worked these jobs who are still assholes? in my experience it is sometimes people who have themselves worked in service positions who have the least patience with these workers, because 'i worked a similar job and i was better at it and they're fucking up in ways they shouldn't' etc. and does this not let people who haven't worked these jobs and treat retail/food service workers like shit kind of off the hook? like, 'well i can't expect you to be a decent person to this other human because you haven't been in this position'??? what kind of bullshit. yeah you fucking can and in fact should expect that even from people who haven't worked those jobs! what the actual fuck! you can (at least try to) have empathy for people even when you haven't been in exactly the same position. that's. kind of what empathy is?? being able to imagine what something might be like and acting accordingly??? what the actual fuck. like. i repeat this is not aimed at op but has ANYONE in those notes stopped to think about this for at least one second. i might be taking their comments too literally bcs that's kind of how my brain works sometimes but i don't doubt that at least some of those people genuinely believe those things. and like this really isn't me arguing that service jobs don't give you a lot of good stuff in terms of skills, perspective, understanding, patience, politeness, empathy. but to position it as some special trial by fire everyone needs to undergo to be a decent human is ridiculous and frankly genuinely not good for several reasons

made the mistake of reading replies on drake's twitter. the video where he kisses the 17 y/o and comments on her breasts he was 22 and people are saying that's the same maturity level, the age of consent in canada is 16, the age of consent in colorado (where it happened) is 17, etc. i hate how incapable of nuance people are when talking about this. i have to rant because i'm upset lol
look back on when you were 17. would you or would you not have been flattered if a 22 or 23 y/o was attracted to you? i actually was in a relationship with that exact gap at that age. i do not think i ever would have entered that relationship if i had not been flattered by his attention.
our maturity gap was definitely way less significant than with the 32 y/o i started seeing at age 19, not least of all because i, personally, hadn't attended school since age 15 and had generally been through some more "adult" experiences while he had only slept with one other person before. that didn't change the fact that at 22/23, he had lived in the largest city in america, sans parental support, for 4 years and had a wealth of experiences that equipped him for life in a way that, looking back, i see i couldn't even comprehend. this was generally one of my healthier relationships, but i can see in the rearview mirror that when the relationship was unhealthy, it was due to the maturity gap. (and it was not a "healthy" relationship.)
if you're 22/23 or older, envision a 17 y/o. maybe you have worked with a teenager in food service or retail, maybe you live near a high school and see teens around often. envision those people! did or do you genuinely see them as on equal footing with you physically and mentally? can you imagine being attracted to them? i hope not. i take back the shit i said about never being certain about anything bc i am certain that no 17 y/o actually carries themselves in a way so as to present like an adult
age of consent laws don't reflect this/the actual morality of the situation and are generally designed to be relatively forgiving (of offending adults). our society doesn't value the wellness of minors. shocking! you shouldn't base personal ethics on national or state laws. shocking!
it's true that from a biological and psychological perspective, both a 17 y/o and 22 or 23 y/o are "young adults." i think i recently saw a post saying that the "your brain isn't fully developed until 25" thing is a myth, which is incorrect. your prefrontal cortex finishes developing around age 25, ending "adolescence." but biopsychological markers aren't the only relevant factors here :)
our society (the u.s.) is constructed in such a way that very different activities and preferences are expected of and inherent to someone in their late teens vs. someone in their early 20s. said constructs include but aren't limited to the age of majority (18), college (usually 18–22, with a distinctive shift toward more complex studies around age 21), the drinking age (21), etc. these constructs aren't identical across all western cultures (the only ones i feel entitled to make conclusive statements about) but do mostly culminate in a separation of ppl in their late teens and early 20s.
also, it's not like you enter adolescence with your prefrontal cortex at one stage of development and it stays like that until it magically matures at age 25. it's a process, and someone in their 20s is more mature than someone in their teens. period.
actually, it's shown that "adult" experiences during adolescence impede development/maturation, not speed it up. this is relevant because people in their 20s who are interested in teens often point out that those teens are more mature than others due to their experiences with sex, drug use, etc. in fact, they are less capable of sound decision-making than other teens. huh!
it's fucking weird for a person in their 20s, especially someone whose social circle is on the other side of college and other definitive early 20s experiences, to be into teenagers! period. sorry.
re: the drake incident in particular, he was also in a position of power over the girl, being that she was a fan of his very, very popular music. like, to say it wasn't super fucking odd of him is just creepy! he, himself, says in the video that he would "get in trouble" for it or something like that. he obviously doesn't gaf about not only consent laws, but the maturity and power differentials that contemporary/progressive thought bases distaste for relationships between adults and minors on.
ppl bring up that the girl, now 31, has brushed the incident off. duh! she was 17 and a famous rapper was attracted to her. it was a passing moment between two strangers, she's not a "victim." people are using the video to point out that drake has been into teens this whole time. we don't know if he has victims. also, the # of people who think victimhood is defined by whether or not someone identifies with it is extremely concerning.
in general, i really wish people would think more critically about this topic. i'm lucky in that i had experiences that sort of enlightened me as to why this sort of thing is wrong/harmful to developing young people, but it really fucking sucks that i have to constantly read ppl who don't have the first idea of what going through a relationship with a power/maturity differential, or this particular power differential, is like talk about it like ppl who are against it are being dramatic. it is legitimately hurtful to me. psychic damage. i don't imagine i'm the only one. like. can y'all shut the fuck up? 😭

🐅 and 🦄 for your faves Theon and/or Sansa and/or Jaime!
Thank you, bb! I'm sorry these will probably be disappointing and lackluster :(
Theon
🐅 - Characterization: character habits, personality, etc - No, in a modern AU/setting Theon would not be a college drop out or whatever working retail/food service. Like, I'm sorry, not trying to be a snob but this boy is way too ambitious. And yea he might not like school for its own sake, but he's intelligent and willing to work hard to achieve his goals. He's probably a business admin major or going into law or something.
🦄 - Characters' physical appearance - Frankly don't know if I have a particularly unpopular opinion here hmm. I guess, I always see his hair as long-ish, whereas short is more popular with people, I think?
Sansa
🐅 - Characterization: character habits, personality, etc - I feel like...idk what counts as a unpopular opinion on Sansa because she's so polarizing that no matter what, any opinion is going to popular in one part of the fandom or the other... But let's just say that I think if Sansa got to meet Edmure, she would love him and they would connect immediately on the ideals of lordship as responsibility of protecting your people and if she ever had the chance, she would lovingly but firmly tell her mother that she was being unfair toward Edmure. (And would scold Robb too, in the most polite and ladylike fashion of course.) Does this blatant wish fulfillment count here? idk.
🦄 - Characters' physical appearance - Sophie is so tall, and I think it's actually pretty popular to keep her as a book!Sansa FC and for the most part I do as well. Except for the height. Sansa is a short queen to me ❤
Jaime
🐅 - Characterization: character habits, personality, etc - Ahhh I have not, sadly, thought about Jaime enough lately or from a fandom-y perspective to have developed Hot Takes lol. I guess...I like the idea that if given the chance/right circumstances, he'd enjoy being a mentor to a "younger version of himself" so to speak. Maybe not Loras specifically, but maybe yes Loras once he gets over the shock of it/if Loras was willing. I'd like to think that if he was ever in a mentor-style position with a young Theon they'd get on. But that's prob more fanfic and wishful thinking that legit headcanon lmao.
🦄 - Characters' physical appearance - My toxic trait is that I have a hard time picturing book!Jaime not at least in large part just like his show self.

Financial Economics
By. Jacinda Thomas, Masters of Science in Wealth Management
Good Morning,
One of the first things I had to learn as a world class wealth manager was financial economics. Let's dive right in.
First we will break down the meaning of each individual word.
Financial: the study of finance; let's define finance: money or other liquid resources of a government, business, group, or individual
Economics: a social science concerned chiefly with description and analysis of the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services
There were also other definitions as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now let's think about it: the economy is the revolving circulation of goods or services. And finance is simply money... so it's safe to say that financial economics is money of the circulation of goods and services.
This makes sense. As an ultra high net worth wealth manager, it's important to have a clear understanding of the circulatory money activity of goods and services.
This is one of the things that makes me such a great ultra high net worth wealth manager and advisor. As a person from a family of entrepreneurs I took a keen interest in how business is run from a very, very early age. As mentioned in my opening essay, throughout the last 16 years I've super deep dived into industries of all sorts: autos, mechanics, cars, fashion, retail, style grooming, software engineering, web development, apps, servers, computers, design, restaurants, food, logistics, warehousing, transportation, logistics, shipping/receiving, farming, agriculture, agtech, vertical farming, energy, wind, oil, pellet, real estate, construction, interior design, development, commercial, industrial, residential, art, music, touring, music production, education, teaching, higher learning, politics, government, religion, philanthropy, non-profit, finance products. With the latest being crypto, blockchain, and web3... I'm sure there are a few things I didn't mention, but overall these are few of the fields that I've had genuine authentic non-manufactured interest in. Which is key, genuine interest is rare.
Extremely thoroughbred in regards to understanding how the world works. Which will make me one of the most valuable and highly sought after high net worth wealth managers in the world.
Even the pastors need a pastor.
I understand the economy, the intricacies of how it interacts. And I'm continuously learning in natural ways.
Tumblr media
We're never in a hurry, it's important that the table is set properly.
Okay so now let's dive deeper into financial economics.
Tumblr media
Our overall assumption just from defining the words is in the ballpark of this definition. The study of the financial system. The study of economic resources allocation over time under conditions of uncertainty. Yes this makes sense. The study of the use and distribution of resources in the financial markets.
Within a semester class we will learn much more to be able to adequately assist our clients and/or firms.
The Canadian lecture on financial economics adds a nice global perspective to our understanding.
The Financial Appetite blog does a lovely job of explaining this. Learn more here: https://www.thefinancialappetite.com/blog/what-is-financial-economics
Tumblr media
What Is Financial Economics?
Tumblr media
Financial economics is a branch of economics that analyzes how resources are used and distributed in markets. In general, it is the study of choices consumers, business managers, and government officials make to achieve their goals considering that they have limited or scarce resources. Financial decisions will frequently have to take into consideration future events, which can be related to individual stocks, portfolios, or the market as a whole. Financial economics differs from the other branches of economics because it pays particular attention to monetary activities. This branch of economics analyzes how inflation, depression, deflation, recession, prices, and other financial variables impact one another. It applies economic principles to financial markets, corporations, banks, and central banking policies, and uses economic theory to evaluate how time, risk, opportunity costs, and information can produce incentives for a particular decision. Financial economics plays an important role in making investment decisions, identifying risks, and valuing securities and assets.
What a wonderful break down. Let's see what Investopedia has to say.
Financial Economics
What Is Financial Economics?
Financial economics is a branch of economics that analyzes the use and distribution of resources in markets. Financial decisions must often take into account future events, whether those be related to individual��stocks, portfolios, or the market as a whole.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Financial economics analyzes the use and distribution of resources in markets.
It employs economic theory to evaluate how time, risk, opportunity costs, and information can create incentives or disincentives for a particular decision.
Financial economics often involves the creation of sophisticated models to test the variables affecting a particular decision.
How Financial Economics Works
Making financial decisions is not always a straightforward process. Time, risk (uncertainty), opportunity costs, and information can create incentives or disincentives. Financial economics employs economic theory to evaluate how certain things impact decision making, providing investors with the instruments to make the right calls.
Financial economics usually involves the creation of sophisticated models to test the variables affecting a particular decision. Often, these models assume that individuals or institutions making decisions act rationally, though this is not necessarily the case. The irrational behavior of parties has to be taken into account in financial economics as a potential risk factor.
Tumblr media
Investopedia compares it to traditional economics.
Financial Economics vs. Traditional Economics
Traditional economics focuses on exchanges in which money is one—but only one—of the items traded. In contrast, financial economics concentrates on exchanges in which money of one type or another is likely to appear on both sides of a trade. 
The financial economist can be distinguished from traditional economists by their focus on monetary activities in which time, uncertainty, options and information play roles. 
Financial Economics Methods
There are many angles to the concept of financial economics. Two of the most prominent are:
Discounting
Decision making over time recognizes the fact that the value of $1 in 10 years' time is less than the value of $1 now. Therefore, the $1 at 10 years must be discounted to allow for risk, inflation, and the simple fact that it is in the future. Failure to discount appropriately can lead to problems, such as underfunded pension schemes.
Risk Management and Diversification
Advertisements for stock market-based financial products must remind potential buyers that the value of investments may fall as well as rise.
Financial institutions are always looking for ways of insuring, or hedging, this risk. It is sometimes possible to hold two highly risky assets but for the overall risk to be low: if share A only performs badly when share B performs well (and vice versa) then the two shares perform a perfect hedge.
An important part of finance is working out the total risk of a portfolio of risky assets, since the total risk may be less than the risk of the individual components.
Let's look at one more source to understand Financial Economics. This time we will view a video:
youtube
Take the day to review the materials above. And welcome to Financial Economics.

Digital Retailing: Understanding and Communicating with the e-Consumer
Disadvantages and advantages of e-shopping for consumers
In present times, it can be easier for consumers to get a hold of their shopping needs, as e-shopping has been gaining popularity over the last few years. It is said that “About 2.14 billion shoppers now buy items online, which is a significant increase from just a few years ago. With the current world population of 7.9 billion, it means that 27% of all people that are alive are digital buyers' “(Rajnerowicz, 2023). With that information provided, it can be safe to say that much of the population has used e-shopping and most of the population is familiar with this action. The most important key points that a consumer is looking for when shopping is the accessibility of this product/service, convenience, and the total price of the shopping experience. It can be argued that for some consumers, e-shopping is an easier way to get essentials and or services while others say it is better to go to a store and purchase their needs in person. An example of how online shopping can be of benefit to customers was during the COVID-19 pandemic, as many people were ordered to stay home and not leave the house unless there were essential workers or extreme emergencies. “The pandemic has definitely had an impact on shopping behavior, with more people turning to the internet to buy everything from food and groceries to clothing and other essentials” (Rajnerowicz, 2023). With that statement being said, it can be seen that online shopping gained more popularity during the pandemic time, as more people found that method more accessible. Although e-shopping can come with many advantages, there are also some disadvantages that consumers may run into.
Tumblr media
Advantages 
When seeing the many products/services that e-shopping can do for the e-shopper, there are positive elements that lead up to a good experience from e-shopping, A customer chooses online shopping over in-person shopping because they can find it easy to search for many alternatives, customers can also find favorable prices, and customers can also buy their items discreetly. These are some of the most common reasons why customers find it more accessible to shop online, This can be very beneficial for businesses too as can have online customers and regular in-store customers. Through customers’ e-shopping, they can be allowed to sign up for membership programs where they can be sent emails from their preferred business and get deals for next-time products. That is another advantage for e-customers, they are given opportunities that most other customers would not be given unless they are signed up for membership programs. This can be a huge plus because many people who do online shopping know that at the end of a shopping trip, prices can add up, and having coupons or deals can really improve a customer experience. Looking at chapter 4 of the book titled “Internet Retailing and Future Perspectives” goes on to explain how “There are a number of advantages for shoppers. First in ranked order from the CapGemini survey: ‘Convenient/easy’; ‘Saves time’ and ‘Fits in with other activities’. Other commonly cited advantages, typed by responses to our own survey include ‘Breadth and depth of prod- ucts’; ‘Prices favorable’, and ‘Convenient’“ (American Psychological Assoc, 2017). With these slight advantages, e-customers are more inclined to be loyal to their preferred business due to the easier process of e-shopping.
Tumblr media
Disadvantages
Even though there are some advantages to e-shopping, there can still be some disadvantages that attract customers away and stay loyal as in-store customers. Some reasons that e-shopping can turn customers off are because they may feel that credit card and security can be breached causing anxiety to be at an all-time high, feeling that there is a lack of personal and social interaction, some customers feel that not touching or trying the merchandise is a hard choice to make, and finally, some customers just simply do not know how to go about the website. It can be seen that with all these disadvantages, customers are not willing to do e-shopping or make it the most convenient way to shop. According to the book mentioned before, in the same chapter it goes to explain that “​​The main disadvantages for shoppers, in ranked order were: ‘Availability’; ‘Can’t be in to receive delivery’; ‘Pre- mium charged for delivery’ and ‘Can’t see or feel the merchandise’” ((American Psychological Assoc, 2017). With these details, it can be concluded that the most common disadvantages of e-shopping are trust issues that customers may feel toward these online activities. Elements such as providing credit card details, being unable to touch the merchandise, little to no human interaction, and not knowing how to go about shopping online are thoughts and feelings that are things that customers are not thrilled about when online shopping. For some people it is hard to find the right items at the perfect price and the most convenient, this can be fixed for the customer if they get constant help and are shown that some level of trust can go a long way. If there is someone that is new to online shopping, it can be helpful to get a run through what to expect and how to get to the final outcome. 
Tumblr media
Outlook for e-shoppers
“E-commerce, in its current form, is not intended to completely replace in-store shopping. Some retailers are even moving towards a model where you can try things in-store and then get the same product shipped to you” (Rajnerowicz, 2023). With that text provided, it lets people know that the purpose of e-commerce is not to replace in-store shopping, but instead to make it more convenient for customers and businesses all over. When customers go in-store shopping, there is the possibility that a specific item can not be found but the store employees can let the customer know that the item they are looking for can be provided for them online. E-shopping is something that will only become more popular as the years go on, it is important that customers should know how to use websites to buy products/services should anything happen in their day-to-day routine. As far as how businesses can market to their customers, this e-shopping can only make it easier for them to market, as they can easily send promotion emails, appear in their news feed, and by showing off news products/services. By customers doing online shopping, businesses can also benefit from this as they can have much more demand for their products, and they will be able to have both in-store and online inventory making more available for their customers. Should their demand exceed more than their supply, the business can have the option of solely providing in-store items or online items, regardless there will always be an option for the customer.

The Personal Check Is Disappearing. Here’s What Comes Next
New Post has been published on https://douxle.com/2024/08/10/the-personal-check-is-disappearing-heres-what-comes-next/
The Personal Check Is Disappearing. Here’s What Comes Next
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One of the first checks ever recorded was written in the 11th century, in a marketplace in Basra, in present-day Iraq. There, a merchant issued a sakk: written instructions to his bank to make a payment from his account. 
A thousand years later, this form of payment is finally disappearing. Target said it would stop accepting checks as of July 15; other retailers, including Whole Foods and Old Navy, have already stopped accepting them. It’s just the latest sign that the form of payment is nearing obsolescence: The average American writes just one check a year, down from 3 in 2016, according to a Federal Reserve survey. 
“I absolutely think that we are moving to a world of ‘check zero,’” says Scott Anchin, vice president at the Independent Community Bankers of America. “As we see new payment methods come to the fore, we see new opportunities for consumers and businesses to move away from check usage.” 
From a security perspective, this is a positive. Checks are not particularly safe ways to send money. They have your account and routing numbers on them, sensitive information that criminals could use. They can be stolen in the mail and changed to be made out to different people or for different amounts. For instance, in April 2023, a U.S. Postal Service employee stole $24 million in checks from the mail and sold them through Telegram, a popular messaging app, according to a federal indictment in the Western District of North Carolina. 
Read More: Why Mail Theft Is On the Rise
Flawed as checks are, though, they haven’t gone away entirely because many people still depend on them, especially to pay rent and utility bills. But experts say a new kind of payment may finally change that. 
Instant Payments Come to the Fore
The newest type of payment— the first to be introduced in the U.S. since the ACH network in the 1970s—is called instant payments, in which money moves from your account to another account immediately. You may think you already use instant payments with services like Venmo, but you don’t—behind the scenes, the money can take some time to move, and it’s not coming directly from your bank account but from a Venmo account, for instance.
Here’s how instant payments work: Different types of payments—wire transfers, checks, ACH—all happen over what are called rails. A rail is essentially the system that gets your money from one place to another. Think of a pile of cash in a briefcase. You could move that briefcase from one place to another in a car, or a bus, or a train, or an airplane; those transportation methods are like the rails that move your money. Instant payments are a new kind of payment rail, but there still needs to be a user interface to allow consumers to access them. Some payments on Zelle already happen on an instant payment rail, says Bridget Hall of ACI Worldwide. 
One year ago, the Federal Reserve launched FedNow, an instant payment rail that allows for people to send money to each other if they’re enrolled in participating institutions. Another payment rail, RTP, short for Real Time Payments, was launched in 2017 by The Clearing House, a private payment-system infrastructure owned by large commercial banks. But it has fewer participants than FedNow, which boasts about 900 participating banks and credit unions.
Instant payments are different from anything that exists now, including wire transfers, ACH payments, and debit cards. Wire transfers can take 24 hours to reach customer accounts, and they’re not available 24/7; ACH payments are processed in batches and can only happen during banking hours; debit-card purchases don’t settle in accounts immediately. But instant payments happen in real-time, at any hour of any day, and don’t cost anything for the sender. 
Real-time payments accounted for just 1.5% of total payments in 2023, which is about 3.5 billion transactions, according to ACI Worldwide, which sells software facilitating real-time payments. Experts expect that number to grow to 14 billion real-time transactions by 2028.
Instant payments are already extremely popular in other parts of the world. In India, real-time payments were launched in 2010 and now make up 84% of the share of all electronic payments—that’s 129 billion transactions. Brazil had 37 billion real-time payment transactions in 2023, and Thailand had 20 billion, according to ACI Worldwide. 
But the two rails for instant payments in the U.S.—FedNow and RTP—are relatively new. It’s taken this long for the U.S. to adopt real-time payments because there were intermediaries like PayPal that allowed people to feel like they were paying someone else instantly, says Hall. 
There are some big advantages to instant payments. Say you have to fund a lunch account at your kids’ school: You can provide a credit card (and be charged a transaction fee), or write a check, which takes days to get processed and may mean your kid has to skip a few days of tater tots. The velocity of instant payments is a good thing for businesses too; instead of waiting for a check to arrive, and then cashing it to find out there’s no money in the user’s account, an electricity company can get paid instantly.
“If we start looking at the payment methods used to complete a transaction today,” Hall says, “we have many use cases where the options either aren’t great or aren’t good enough.”
Some people might already be using instant payments and not realizing it—a share of transactions on Zelle, a digital payments network run by big banks, run over instant payment rails. Your payment may go over the instant payment rails if both parties in the transaction are part of member banks that use RTP or FedNow. 
There are downsides to real-time payments. People without mobile phones or computer access, or who aren’t comfortable with technology, may have a hard time switching to real-time payments. And real-time payments are irrevocable, meaning once you send them, you can’t get them back—a potential problem in a world that is increasingly plagued with scams that involve one person sending money to another. 
Read More: Defrauded? Banks May Not Give Your Money Back. 
But most forms of payment have some kind of downside. Consider the check, for example. Long after its medieval origins, checks slowly became popular around the world, booming in the U.S. between 1938 and 1952, when the number of checks written annually reached 8 billion, according to a history by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. 
Banks had to process all of these checks, usually manually, meaning they had to be handled by employees who notated all the information on them as they were passed from one bank to another. Then credit cards started gaining in popularity, and consumers moved onto what was more convenient, which was a big cost savings for banks. That move towards convenience—and cost savings—is now happening once again.
