He probably moved on to cell phones and made even more money.
>that time the Mom took over and did showgirl advertising
>mfw "go do your homework or something"
Bob sold cellphones too. They acknowledged that in the show.

Hospitals still use beepers because they are more reliable.

Probably switched to cellphones to get Helga through high school and had a large amount of savings, and then within the last few years bought out by Verizon or someone else for the shop.
I bet Bobs living a good life now.

Why do people always ask this? What do you think Bob did? Like everyone's said, he switched to cell phones, he was absolutely fine. There's no other option on the table, and no other option is needed.

Craig wanted to make a 'the Patakis' show feauting Helga as the protagonist and said Bob would've realized how lucrative cellphones were and kickstart a cellphone business.

The beeper market technically didn't actually collapse.
Beepers are one of those things that everyone thinks is no longer used but is actually still around.
>>88726863
he was already selling Cell Phones and other electronics during the show, Beepers were just his main focus, so as Beepers declined he focused more on Cell Phones, heck I bet he was one of the first to see the potential in Smart Phones and invested heavily in them, he's probably richer than ever

You think Bob wouldnt ride the cellphone boom?
They probaly would have gotten fuckton rich and finally sent Miriam to AA.
