[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] FW: Realtor Makes Horror Realization While Selling House to Gen Z Buyer

[Robert Primak]

 I use US Mobile which is a reseller of a reseller from Verizon. I don't travel overseas, so that's not an issue for me. I also don't need my phone for a hotspot. I use Comcast for my"land line". In a power outage I get some benefit from my battery backup/UPS. And yes, I have read about true POTS land lines making a comeback with Gen-Z.

 Five years ago, my wife, Judy, who’s a realtor, had a similar experience to the one written up in Newsweek.  She was showing an up-to-date condo to a family, when the 14-year-old girl shouted, “What’s this?” 
It was a wall phone.
Judy didn’t contact any journalists.Maybe she should have.

I haven’t had a POTs line in many years, but I consider my Comcast Internet phone service to be a landline.  Maybe we should talk of home phones and personal phones.

Fortunately, I do have good cellular service from Verizon.  Although Comcast keeps telling me I would save money by switching to their cellular service, I like the idea of having two very separate phone carriers for reliability.  It is a belt-and-suspenders philosophy.

(etc.)
Realtor found his Gen Z client doesn’t have a concept of a landline.
