    Yeah, except someone can copy your fingerprint like Mythbusters did, or they could cut off your finger which wouldn't work with this method because you need blood flowing through your finger. Maybe someone could create an elaborate method to pump fluid through your finger.

    I'm old-school and prefer cash.
