Not true. That only happens if your ISP has a large pool of extra addresses. I've had the same IP address for about 6mo now, inc. after two power outages lasting 2+ hours.

If your ISP has fully transitioned to IPv6, you will likely have a static IP forever since they can do IPv4 to IPv6 via NAT in a fully seamless way.
