I go the other way around, I make sure I save more money up front then
it will cost me to get out later -- No risk, I have no fear of breaking
the contract down the road because even if I cancel it the day after
signing it, I still spend less then someone who buys their hardware
outright.

Each to their own, but I use it to build my credit rating (Which is
already R1 anyway, but every additional revolving item is one more thing
that shows I'm capable of paying my bills)
