Earlier this week I was helping my youngest daughter get a cell phone replaced. I watched many people who looked almost homeless, paying $150-$200 in cash to pay their monthly cell phone bill. And I just don't get it. I rarely use my phone, it's 9 yrs. old. My car was purchased new in 1996, a Land Rover Defender 90, and I still get excited to start it and drive. The mass hysteria about always needing new, different, the same just doesn't compute with me. Especially for over $1000 for a phone?
