Friends, who are new to Bitcoin, often ask me what the easiest way is to acquire Bitcoin with cash? I usually suggest a Bitcoin meetup, but those are infrequent and rarely nearby.

So #question - what are some ways to turn cash into Bitcoin without having to send folks to a Bitcoin ATM !!?!! #asknostr

I'm asking so that I, and others here, have good responses to those genuinely interested in swapping fiat for Bitcoin, but without using traditional banking routes. School me.
