My income.has been drasticly cut to 630 a month because the company I work for is in bankruptcy and about to close forever,
So how I do it
I only pay 25 a month, you don't need a smartphone,
What is the real reason you have a smartphone? I don't need one...period,
News? I look on the internet at home
>RadioShack Employee worried about his future
Go APLLY at best buy. Faggot, its what the rest of us did
>>51616716
Fuck you.
>>51616705
You don't even need a dumbphone. You could save yourself $25 a month with the mentality that you only pay for things you absolutely need.
What if you already have a smartphone, why do we have to pay every month to use it. It's bullshit
>>51616813
Because you are paying to use the cell towers that the network owns
I already have a smartphone, and I only pay about $25/month with Ting.
A seconded handed Samsung Galaxy S1 and similar are like 30 bucks nowadays.
You literally have no reason to buy a dumbphone over a smartphone nowadays
>>51616840
Not if you can't afford it, I want to live life as cheap as possible, people lived find in the 1500s without electricity
>>51616968
They also died much younger.
Anyways, you can find smartphones for cheap as fuck, there is literally no reason to get a dumbphone unless you're a dummy who can't find basic deals.
>>51616996
No, you will just end up upgrading and throwing it in a drawer
No smartphone needed
>>51616705
What's stopping you from having a smartphone and paying $5 a month?
>€20 per month
>unlimited data
>unlimited calls
>unlimited texts
>can use credit to buy from the playstore (if desired)
> €10 free credit every month for being a loyal customer
>still prepay and can choose to skip as many months as I want without consequence.
Why the fuck would I want to switch to a dumbphone?
>>51616968
It's a one time $30 thing. Use your WiFi for internet if you want to be a cheap fuck.
contracts are as cheap as $5-10/month if you use 250 mb / 100 minutes. That's more than enough for your average NEET.
Unless you're homeless you have no right to bitch about it.
>>51617146
Because my rent is 220 dollars a month
>>51617255
I am homeless, I had to move back in with my parents
You don't need running water or flushing toilets either.
i pay 12 eur
>100 minutes, 200 text, 2 gb data
>>51616705
>I only pay 25 a month
That sounds like a lot of money for a piece of shit.
>>51617278
Rajesh this is not the time.
I pay 12€/month for my N5
>3000 texts
>3000 minutes
>3 GB mobile data
Based Brutal Bob
don't even care about muh unlimited data etc because i'm mostly using my phone at uni or at home both of which have fast wifi, i don't have 20h phonecalls and if i have to check something on the go/use messengers the throttled speed will do
i pay like 5€/month
Why not a smartphone with pre-paid?
>>51616705
I have a 100$ moto e LTE and pay 10$ a month for my phone plan. No need for dumbphone.
>>51616705
To be honest, I would cut home internet before I cut my smartphone. I would shut down HULU and Netflix.
I can go to a coffee shop, library, or a mcdonalds and use the internet there if I really needed to. And I could tether my laptop to my phone if I needed to, without streaming it doesnt use much data at all.
I pay almost double for my home internet than I do for my smartphone if things got real tight in the money department.
>>51616705
I get only talk, text, and data for $30 flat a month. I bought a NIB smart phone of CL for $200. I have a smartphone because I'm not a poor fag like you and can choose to spend my money if I want and am smart enough to budget so I can spend it on other shit. You have a shit life because you are poor and being poor sucks. I'm sorry you can afford luxuries Anon.
>>51617272
Get a job m8
>>51616705
I've had the same 100€ smartphone for 2 years and a 4€ contract gets me 1GB of data
But there are smartphone call and text plans that start at 25 dollars a month. My little brother pays 25 dollars a month to use a Nokia 635 on ATT, unlimited texts and 250 minutes of calling a month.
On T-Mobile prepaid. Pay 30$ a month for 100 mins talk, unlimited text and 5gb of data. Streaming music doesn't count against data. Streaming 480p Netflix and 480p Hulu doesn't count against my data either.
>>51616705
>I only pay 25 a month,
For $30 you could have 5gb data.
For $25 you could have 0.5gb data. If you didn't use data, $20.
You are as dumb as your phone.
>>51617669
I DON'T NEED DATA, NO
NO
NO
FUCK OFF
>>51616705
>losing job
>going to have to be sending out important resumes and emails to get a new one.
>get rid of the device that allows you to stay connected to social media and email on the go.
Your old job must have not been in the computer field, or you would have NEVER done this.
>>51616705
I have a smart phone and my phone bill is 9 dollars a month. Stay retarded OP.
>>51616705
Okay, you can save money everywhere.
But getting rid of the $55-170 fixed cost (every 4 years?) device that allows you to communicate and find new (maybe even just small) jobs and be entertained?
Not sure. Literally even the 3rd world wants that.
>>51616705
/r/mealprepsunday
Good luck OP
>tfw smartphone pre-paid
Feels good man
I top-up £10 every 3-4 months. Data is 1p per megabyte, 2p per sms, 3p per minute calls to any network.
All my data really goes on stuff like WhatsApp, email, and maps. There isn't much need to browse the internet over 4G... but I occasionally do, or just wait till there is wifi
the only reason to get a smartphone is google maps and maybe whatsapp if you actually have friends

>I work in industrial and warehouse work, i dropped out of school when i was 17
Welcome to the current world of manual labor
Ive fucked around in community college, took an HVAC class, took a welding class, took a few diesel classes.
There were dudes in their 40s with house payments, wives and kids. Laid off from other labor jobs trying to get into a new field.
Now I personally am in limbo and dont know what to do either, because I could transfer to a real college and get a better degree. At that point id have so much debt. Not sure if its better to get into a job where you get laid off every 5-6 years or jump into a saturated market where I would be full of debt.
Shits tough
>not getting free 1200min/1200txt/1200mb of data using a cheap prepaid sprint phone on RingPlus
stay dumb.......phone
>>51616705
I only play $20 a month, and only when I want to. As a Canadian, that's quite the steal compared to what most of my neighbors will pay. I use an older Fido prepaid plan.
If I was motived to move over my number, I could sign up for a Petro-Canada pay-as-you go plan. If I put $25 into my account, that balance will sit around for four months before expiring, allowing me to get through the year on $75.
But, see, I can do that because I don't leave the house.
>>51616705
why would you get a dumbphone if an unlimited LTE plan costs like 5 eur/month. Just stop geting jewed by jews
>>51619662
because I don't have a house, pic related in OP, was me driving to my next dwelling last night

Stick with wifi, would do wifi calling, but that's not really widespread and my carrier doesn't have it or something.

>renting apartment
>got power bill coming up
>at work and get told I'm not good enough and they sack me
>get a nice termination payout
>realize its only a matter of time before my money runs out after paying rent and bills
I managed to get a new job after a month but fuck you OP you have no idea what it's like to be out of home with no job and have bills to pay
RING PLUS IS CHEAP AS SHIT, ITS SPRINTS NETWORK THOUGH SO IT SUCKS
CRICKET IS THE BEST DEAL IN WIRELESS FOR AT&TS NETWORK, GET IN ON SOMEONES 5 LINE PLAN YOUR MONTHLY FOR 2.5GB LTE IS LIKE 20
>Not having both
I was paying $25 every 3 months for my dumbphone, and just switched out the SIM card with an iPhone I found lying around my house. Paying the same amount on the smartphone as I did on the older one.
>>51616705
Jokes on you, I got 3G standard for $7.74USD a month, and unlimited 3G data for $16.20USD a month.
That's fucking UNLIMITED 3G for less than $20 USD a month.
