Not an Iphone 5s or 5c but a Trip to 3 European Capital Cities
I received an email from apple telling about the new Iphones 5s and 5c. They are already available in any Apple stores now. This is how the mail says,
“Hello Hello
iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c have arrived. Buy yours today and have it shipped free to your door. Or visit your favourite Apple Retail Store and we’ll set it up just the way you like.”
I love gadgets! why not! I can buy it now when I want..yay! but I have another priority. With this money, I can already booked a trip to 3-4 countries in Europe. Besides, I still have 3 cellphones that I am currently using. I am not also a fan of calling and texting in cellphones. I don’t have a textmate or caller anyway..haha!
I still have an old Iphone 4 which was given by my sister. I have a new Samsung cf and an old Nokia touch screen phone. With my new Samsung cf, I got 600 Euros when I did a contract for it, in which I will be paying 20 Euros a month for 2 years. The phone is for free and I have free 15 minutes call and text every month. I seldom use cellphones and actually need them during emergency when I am out of the country travelling or outside our home.

It depends on your needs or budget when you are buying a new gadget or electronics. Is this really a need, just a luxury or for show off to friends or other people that you have a new one? Think about it?
This is the reason why I can’ t understand many people who are always buying new ones when their old gadgets are still working or functioning well. If you have money and can afford it why not? But I just hate it when people buy things and after that they complain that they don’t have money anymore for basic needs like food or gasoline for their car.
It is your decision anyway. But as for me, I have other priorities. It is just a waste of money buying things we really don’t need specially when we still have one that we can still use. I rather invest it for the future, save the money or book a trip somewhere. lolz!
Don’t you think these new gadgets are only tricking or only fooling you? This is for me a waste of money buying new gadgets especially when my old ones are still in good condition.
Each and everyone has each own priority or priorities. The final decision still lies on your hands. Always remember, think about the value of money. It is not easy to find or earn money especially if you are working hard on it.
For now, my priority is investment on something very concrete like house and lot. Second, I want to travel while I am still young and my knees are still healthy.
The final decision; I will not be buying a new Iphone 5c or 5s but I rather book a trip to different cities and countries in Europe. I am glad that I finally booked it. This time I will be going back again to Budapest (my third visit soon), Vienna (third visit also) and Bratislava. I can’t wait to experience the Christmas markets in these lovely European cities this holiday season.
Enjoy shopping or maybe have a safe trip! Take care too!
