Hmm. Let see I pay Verizon $49.95 per month for the POTS line to my house. That includes any long distance calls I make to any place in the USA or Canada 365 days a year 24 hours a day, no watching minutes or anything else.
There is no cell phone plan that comes close to that.

You make me laugh. Who the hell pays 49.95 a month for freaking phone line. Get a cell phone. Even a $40 plan will be more than enough. I use something like 500 minutes every month on my 600 minute plan, and I make use of my cell phone for any long distance call in the US. As for international calls, this is where phone cards come in.
I don't want to be racist, but us Asians dont even have land lines. If we do, we only have local calling on them. Why? We get freaking cheap-as-hell phone cards. $10 buys 500 minutes to Taiwan. Beat that. Smart people use phone cards, dumb people buy long distance plans and pay a fortune. No, and we don't buy phone cards from like Verizon that cost a fortune. Buy those cheapass cards that everyone buys at 99 Ranch.

I did a cost comparison a few years ago, for a friend of mine, and for the number of minutes she was on the phone, she was *far* ahead to buy the 'unlimited' plan from Verizon than she would have been by using calling cards. Your advice isn't always right.
