My grandmother is an in home nurse. One of her clients passed away a few years ago. She still had the Ma Bell bakelite phone and was still paying $15/month to rent it. Considering that she was 95 when she passed and probably retired around 60 that is one hell of a lease.
I imagine there is some small group of near-retirement ATT employees processing these payments every month in some dark basement somewhere.
- mturmon 14y ago$15/month * 12 months/year * (95-60) years = $5400 The lease for just one year is $180.
