Be Smarter Than Your Smart Phones!

It's way more important to be smart than to own an expensive smart phone :)!

And by being smart I don't mean the clothes one wears, the cologne one puts on, or the amount of gel one puts in his hair :).

I mean being smart in one's head. Being intelligent. Being sensible.

If you feel you really need a phone with internet capability, sure, buy yourself one that you can afford. Buy only what you need, use it till a replacement is really needed, then buy a new one.

But if you are spending money on buying expensive smart phones just so that others think you are "cool" and all you really use them for is to be on facebook or Instagram or whatsapp etc. etc., then ask yourself this:

That money you spend on buying a fancy smart phone: Is it the smartest use of money you can think of? Maybe buy some books instead and grow intellectually? Musical instruments? Travel? Or maybe help someone in need?

Perhaps equally importantly: Is it your own hard earned money? Or are you blowing up your parents' money :)?

The market will always want you to keep consuming :). It's *you* who has to be smart and use your resources sensibly. You don't exist so that others can make profits. You exist so that you can grow, live a good life, and help those who are less fortunate along the way.

Be smart. Be intelligent. Be sensible. Be wise.
