Example: My AT&T cell phone is 49.95 a month, I bought 300 shares of AT&T which pays .41 per share every 3 month so that comes to .41 X 300 = $123, phone bill is $150 - $126 so it cost me $27 every 3 months thats $9 bucks a month, beat that !!!

How much did you pay for 300 shares of ATT stock and how long ago did you buy it?
