"Free Wi-Fi Everywhere"
I will not be told, coerced,
suggested to or threatened in anyway on what to buy, when to buy it, how
to buy it, how to pay for it, how many ways I can pay for it or and I
especially hate when someone tells me that I can’t live without it. I
will only buy exactly what I need, when I need it and only if I need it.
I will only pay cash. I will never ever charge anything. If I can’t pay
for it, I don’t need it. I will only use free checking and the free
debit card that comes with it. I will not own a charge card and I will
never pay interest on anything. There is no one anywhere that can
convince me to buy anything if I don‘t want it. To even try, is a waste
of time. I won’t believe anything you say if you try to convince me to
buy something. I’ve heard it all before. It will never happen. If you
advertise on the internet and I happen to see it I will make it my
mission to go out of my way not to buy your product. I don’t watch
network or cable TV but if I happen to see something I need or use I
will wait for it to go on sale, use a coupon or travel a 100 miles out
of my way to get it for the price I want to pay. All the ads and
commercials that I happen to see are warnings of what not to buy. The
result of all this is, I don‘t owe anything. Not one nickel, not one red
cent to anyone. There is no way on this planet to make me charge
anything. Let me give you one example. My cell phone or as I like to
say, my pocket computer…Living by those rules you can imagine how hard
it was to find a carrier and NOT sign one of those lengthy contracts
forcing you to pay sometimes for years for internet and phone service.
The kind that send you a nasty bill every month warning you, if you
don’t pay they will shut it off. This all started six years ago when I
changed servers and I bought a “pay as you go” (minutes) from someone I
will refer to as a server. After buying minutes for one year and keeping
their phone service I was automatically put on what they call, I think,
a good customer list and can never lose the minutes I paid for. I can
now keep those minutes or accumulate them for a full year from the date I
purchased them.. I now have $50 dollars worth of minutes I can’t lose.
Got it so far? Three inexpensive phones later and bringing one back I
didn’t like, the battery kept dieing. I finally bought, after saving for it a
really good Android phone that gets internet service. I say good
because its fast (4G) and I paid $200 dollars for it. Its my phone no
one can take back if I don’t pay. Now because I have the pay as you go
service I can turn on the internet for a minute or for a day if I want
to.. The cost is $2.00 for 24 hours. I look at it this way…I don’t ever
turn on the internet so I don’t pay for internet service but I have the
phone that gets it if I want it. I have discovered that every where I go
they have internet or what they call free Wi-Fi service. I even have a
wireless router that I bought at the thrift store for $10 dollars…Not
connected because I don’t need it…The phone I have works great with the
free Wi-Fi…I’m really surprised how good it works…total price… zero,
nothing at all…It took me a while to find this but I’m glad I did what I
did…I will never understand why anyone would pay for something if its
free
