$227. Verizon, 5 lines, unlimited data. No installment plan or contracts. I pay cash for the phones so they cant screw me on installment fees.

I pay $60/mo with Verizon all in. One line with unlimited talk and text and I think 4G of data.

The key is to limit your data use (most places have wifi and who wants to watch videos and read articles on a 3 inch screen anyway). Also there seems to be a pretty strong bimodal distribution to the hardware costs of the phones themselves. Just go with the cheaper (and just as effective) smartphone a step or two down and resist the urge to add $50 to your bill financing the latest iphone, droid, etc.

Imagine needing a new car and the only options are a brand new $50,000 BMW with all the bells and whistles or a $2000 used baseline Corolla or Civic. Your average middle class prole would be a fool to waste all of his income financing the BMW, yet somehow the phone industry has convinced modern America to do just this.

$51 a month. It's only a flip phone with unlimited text but I want a phone to be a phone. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't want to turn into a phone addict that I see daily. No regrets. With a computer at home and at work, why do I need one in my pocket 24/7. Looking at some of these bills, people wonder why they are living check to check.

There are several posters I'd pay good money to see throttled.

You're not one of them, though.
