Cell phone is basically just another excuse to have another bill. You aren't missing much honestly.

Several mates have mentioned how they envy me for not having one. Is it really so difficult to go through life without the need for one?

I basically use it only and have no land line. I'm assuming you have a land line? Imagine going through life without a landline.

It's just weird you don't have one.

it's most important function it's that in case of an emergency you can contact anyone or anyone can contact you at any given moment, that's the most logical reason to own a cell phone the rest of its features are just a bonus.

Imagine this, you're in a car accident and you are alright but you severely injured the person that you crashed into.

by some coincidence the dude you crashed into doesn't have a cell phone, cause who needs them, right? All the cars are passing by too fast and no one stops to help you and there are no phone booths around cause lets face it, phone booths practically don't exist anymore, what do you do?

honestly tho with the prices the way they are today im not sure what good reason there is not to have a cell phone.. the only person i know who doesn't have some kind of smartphone is literally paranoid that the govt will use it to track him down, and even he has a flip phone

you can get a smartphone for 30 dollars

45 dollars a month for unlimited everything, prepaid with no strings, including data

unless you just have no job/money and never speak to girls i can't imagine why that wouldn't be worth it
