Re: LUcifer Shakes Down Widows

So at 62 years of age the woman made the decision to keep renting her 
phones.  She was obviously happy with her service and the quality of the 
phones as she CHOSE to continue doing what she was doing.

While I agree that it was unwise financially, it did appear to be her
choice 
and she obviously wasn't on her last legs.  I don't see much difference 
beween this and people who chose to lease a car or buy a car on credit or 
buy insurance on depreciating consumer goods.  I never do it, but that 
doesn't mean someone else thinks it's worth their money.  It's easy to
blame 
companies for providing a service and making a profit.  In this case,
Lucent 
Technologies.
