coherence and cohesion

Consider starting with a more personal greeting to engage your friend more warmly. For instance, 'Dear [Friend's Name],' instead of 'Dear friend.' It makes the letter feel more personal.

coherence and cohesion

Ensure sentences are punctuated correctly and spaces are provided between sentences. For example, 'Iwill pay him' should be 'I will pay him'.

A 'cashless society' is one where people use debit/credit cards and other forms of payment instead of cash. Do the advantages of a cashless society outweigh the disadvantages?
Money is any item or medium of exchange that symbolizes value. It is accepted by people for the payment of goods and services, as well as the repayment of loans. Day by day, more and more settlement methods appear to meet the demands of consumers. Nowadays, purchasers prefer to use debit/credit cards and other forms of payment instead of cash. From my perspective, we still have many situations when physical payment is more beneficial than the others.
