This question lingers in my mind when i see everyone wanting Blackberry Storm to Thunder if they have that one already.Lol..I mean really what happened to the phone for being used to just say "Hello" and pass on the message.Oooh now we BBM in meetings and Funerals.
Well frankly i do not know what the fuss is all about.I see people around me when they talk about Blackberry its like a New President.Their faces change someone please fill me in today.To me BBM is like the upgrade of Mixit.Am waiting for a scandal that will also come out of this.You know its not Technology if there is no Drama.With Mixit there we pedophiles i wonder whats coming with BBM.
By the way i have a friend who has gone through all model of Blackberry.I mean every model.
We move over to them folks with expensive cars but ask the Petrol Attendant for R20 petrol.I mean the car is worth R200.000 and you stand there thinking.This Folk needs to get his/her priorities straight.Don't get me wrong its nice to see someone driving a nice car provided its not Gold digging your pocket.
Do not get me started on the expensive clothes.I mean really in 2011 people still care about Brands?People get stressed if a weekend goes by they did not but a new Brand item.I got a wake up call on Brands on the Summer of 2008 when i bought a Top at a very reputable Retail store for R300 only to see the same Top in another shop for R60 i almost threw a rage.We can not blame the Black Box now converted to a Slim Black Box(Plasmas)I mean it is a personal choice to be moved by Brands.But is it realy worth it as these clothes are brought on credit?I mean by the time you finish paying the credit the item is already worn out.
We have became a society that spends on Liability rather than Assets.You spend R8000 on phone but you still renting a flat.You Driving around in R300.000 car while the Flat you renting is R400.000 on Bond.
The Clothes in your wardrobe amount to R60.000 but you do not have food to eat or petrol to put in that expensive car.
Society labels you as if you nothing without these things but the same society label you stupid when you do not own property or put R20 petrol in your expensive car.Well at least i think there is something wrong.
The truth is Society tells us how to live but the choice is ours.
Well am out to the Flee market to buy second hand stuff so i do not owe anyone.Month end i do not expect any post in my mailbox hence i chase the mail man away whenever he comes around. Society wants me to Live a certain life that comes with a price tag i choose to Live my way and that's to save for a house before i can BBM.
Try this it might give you a peaceful time and peaceful nights.

lol.. i laugh coz i am reminded of a guy who bought an expensive 6 series convertable BMW and his bed is a boat.
ReplyDeleteThis one guy bought a Harley Davidson Bike yet his lounge room is a hall.
Sometimes we have screwed up priorities. Yes, society will always talk but who am i kidding.. it feels good to be owning that classy ferrari or Lambo not to mention an Austin martin DBS. The society ranks you top and when you show up everybody has some respect for you coz they know you make things happen but what they dont know is how much debt you have acquired etc.
we like status especially us darkies. Even the bible says we shouldnt be in debt just bcoz we want security, you know the flashy type of life.Pro22:26
eagles fly with eagles and once the crows start commenting then it means you have to change your altitude. lol!
I prefer to grow to that certain level rather than jump to it coz jumping means i will taste and come back down.
A thought just showed up in my mind: It does not make sense owning a flashy car yet the clothes you wear do not compliment it or the choice of word you use do not make up for that level. I am saying when you get into that Maserati even your shoe should be of a certain class e.g. Louis Vuitton etc but we doing it the wrong way.
