What would I wish to pay for with my smart phone? I would have to say a car.

Being that I'm 15 and just starting to drive, I want a new car instead of our family car (2002 Buick Century) I hate that car, with a passion. A nice Volvo C30 or a Chevrolet Camero even a Toyota Prius, I mean anything is better than a brown 2002 Buick century right?

I would love to be able to pay with my phone! My phone is usually always handy, it would be so much easier to use that than open the diaper bag, get out my wallet, swipe my debit card etc, especially when I'm trying to keep an eye on my toddler.

I wish I could pay for my cell phone with my cell phone. x]  Therefore, when I get the cell phone bill, I can just pay it off right away.

I am the only person in the world without a cell phone! If the pseudo-science is correct, I will be the only one without a brain tumor!

You phone should have a credit card app, so that you can pay for things with your phone. Abolish wallets. Who needs IDs when there's an app for that!? The app can use eye scan identification for the credit card function, so that if you get your phone stolen the thief can't max out your cards. It could instantly update you on your balance so you don't overdraft. Fewer things to lose... I see no downside, aside from being broke if your phone battery dies. But have you seen the new Nokia self charging phone? NEAT!

Cell phones are the new wallets? I thought cell phones were the new computers.

I don't own a smart phone. I don't even own a phone for myself. I share a Criket phone with my boyfriend. Phones to me are a waste of money. Neither one of us believe in spending hundreds of dollars a month on a fancy gadget to just text and chat it up with friends, when I can do that with a criket phone for only $40 flat. No tax, no hidden charges, or extra add ons. FLAT.

So to answer the question for a phone that cost a few hundred bucks (if I did own one) I would go on vacation for it!

This "question" is a transparent attempt to figure out how to get us to spend more money on things that will let us spend MORE MONEY STILL.

I wish I could pay fo rgas with my spartphone. Just dial a number and it shows up on your credit card. That'd be hot.

I'm completely against it. There is no situation that makes it okay, even if the person commited a heinous crime, it is letting them off easy by killing them. They should stay alive and rot in jail but never be killed. Two wrongs doesn't make a right.

I am a single mother so I wish the government would pay for the phone. With the economy the way it is how are people going to afford this phone? Most families do not even have money to put in their vehicle to job hunting.

Nothing. I don't have a smartphone, think they're an incredibly bad security idea, and like hell if I'd use one to pay for something. I'm sick of people making a big deal about smartphones like they're the most important thing ever.

I've never done one of these, but I have something to point out, I have no idea how this works, and this is the first I've heard of it, but it seems kind of ignorant to put your credit information on your phone - I'm not even going to bother pointing out the obvious reasons why, no one would care anyway, the tiny magic boxes can hold money now!



Yes. I'm on a laptop. I see the irony.

I don't even know what this question is asking.

My phone is not my wallet. It would probably work better as my wallet, because it is completely nonfunctioning, and I could tuck credit cards into the little grippy case, but they would fall out and then people would steal my money and it would end badly.

When my phone is operative, I can pay for things with it. I pay my phone bill with it, and sometimes my electric bill, and if I had a Starbucks giftcard I could buy my coffee with my phone. Sometimes I pay my car insurance. I wish I could pay for things that are NOT BORING, and I could, because the issue isn't my phone, it's the lack of money.

I'm posting a poll, brb.
