Frenemy

I’m Miriam Neff and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan with Wise Women Managing Money.

M I recently heard a new word to me: frenemy.  It describes your smart phone that has become your enemy, its costs mess with your budget, not to mention that it interrupts your schedule incessantly.  Let’s talk about phone costs.

V Think ‘smart-phone’ means expensive phone.  Look at purchase price, plans, and more.  Even school age children compare.  Who has the most cool phone?

M Remember that what we now find necessary had not been invented not such a long time ago.  People once survived without cars, microwaves, computers and smart phones.
