Any advice on a getting a hobby phone? Good Idea?
I'd get a cheap tracfone for the hobby.
If you have a smartphone just download the Google Voice app and you can create as many anonymous hobby numbers as you need for free. No need to buy a prepaid anymore.

I keep them separate - T-mobile you can do all cash and buy a card to reload anywhere as needed. Put a password on it and if it is ever "found" claim you found it at work and were gonna ask who lost it tomorrow. Then throw it away and "find" a different one. Keep the SIM card so your number comes up with those you have passed screening.

What ever you do, don't buy the type that hookers do. Based upon the untold number of NCNS's, late appointments, and unanswered calls/texts, whore phones break/loose their charge/just refuse to work about every three minutes. I thought everyone bought iphones or androids, but whores must get a special on some kind of North Korean brand or something.

The number was separate from my real number but having hobby contacts in my phone the phone began suggesting I be friends with all my contacts on FB. Plus if you have a nosey SO you can't lock the google voice app.
The string and can.... Works the best, when that fails, smoke signals is the. Way to go!

Judging by the experiences of the ladies, evidently some gents are buying the same brand.
