The only thing I would disagree with (for me anyway) is the carrying of C-notes, for EDC, I do not understand the carrying of C-notes for anything other then showing off,
You will never see mine.
Kind of painting with a wide brush don't you think?

I guess it all depends on what your personal definition of an "emergency" is.Of course exceptions exist (which has been talked about multiple times), but if you are carrying cash for emergencies, $100’s and $50’s are not wise choices, at least for me, as I prefer using what will be accepted, when I need it.
Mostly cashless. Don’t miss cash. Does’t take me any longer to check out with my $2.37 purchase on a debit card than it does for the clerk to figure out how much change to give back if you give them a $5.
Choose whatever you’re comfortable with.
Ha!!!... so I usually have 20 or more ones in my pocket. Bartenders at my club have caught on, so when they are low on ones they come looking for me.
I'm a poker player. As such $50 bills are considered bad luck and I do not carry them.
Sorry, I thought I made it clear why I don’t understand carrying C-notes for EDC.
The reason would be that very few businesses will take $100’s or even $50’s, and the Main reason I carry cash, is for use when I am somewhere that won’t/can’t take a CC, etc..
If it was about seeing the $100’s, then yes, if you are supposedly carrying cash for “emergency use”, then you have very seriously limited your potential use of them, because (again) many businesses will not accept them, so I will standby my statement that carrying them is generally to “show off” to people.

YMMV
I haven't seen a business refuse a $50.00 or $100.00 bill in 25-30 years, and back then it was only stop and robs that refused them.
Most any Stop and Rob that I'm aware of, and use/d, still do not accept $50's or $100's, for obvious reasons.
