Prefer to not be able to Read

You need to count in all walks of life .. plus money is KING


As regards words you can usually work out what something says or means ..

I worked with travellers decades ago ( landscape gardening ) and they coped admirably with poor reading skills- all great with numbers though

It is until someone gives you ten euros and says it’s a 100

That's why I'd have invested in a portable money counting machine :hee:

Because you can't count you wouldn’t have the understanding of what the machine was doing

Well you just made that whole part up.The OP simply says not be able to count, not that you don't know what counting is............

How is that cheating? :suspect: Would listening to an Audiobook be cheating if you picked "can't read" because people who can't read can't understand the concept of words? :hee:

Well not having the concept of reading or counting would make it harder than just be able to cheat using devices

You can’t read so don’t understand the sign that says don’t take a step or you will be killed
Take 7 balls to live you can’t count so you don’t know how many to take and you are killled
