It's for businesses where it's cheaper to pay the ISP to guarantee that it'll stay the same than it is to pay someone to fix things that break if it does change.

So.. move to a business plan?

That's where most static IPs are sold, yes, but one does not guarantee the other. The business plan is more about getting priority over residential customers for repairs.
