One of the few times I have to agree with ya. Most people are brainwashed in thinking they need smartphones, but they dont. I see it every day where people try to justify the reasoning to get it. Years ago it was justifying why to get your college kid a phone. Then it was justifying why their HS kid needed a phone. Then it waas justifying why their 16yr old needs a phone, then it is justifying why your 12-14 year old needs a phone. etc etc etc.sleeper;1072508 wrote:I'd rather only invest in assets that increase my future wealth. A smartphone does not do that, neither does a fancy car, etc. Wealth producing assets are all I care about. Now if you have some suggestions on how a smartphone can generate more future income than the cost associated with the smartphone, I'm all ears.
Hell, I am in the biz and I believe a vast majority of people do NOT need them. -

How exactly does a TV increase your future wealth?

If people only bought what they needed, they wouldn't have much of anything. Food, shelter, and water... Private transportation isn't a necessity because public transportation is available.thavoice;1072533 wrote:One of the few times I have to agree with ya.

Your argument is stupid. Do you need the computer you're typing on?
Do you need the wife who has you by the balls, thus turning you into a baby back bitch? Not really. -

No one needs a smart phone. They are designed to make boring people feel cool because their phone can play games and surf the web.
Color me impressed. :rolleyes: -

I ise the phone when taking a dump. Don't use the phone for taking a piss though I've seen people do it.
No different than bringin in a book or newspaper back in the day. -

Pissing would be odd. Who takes a piss that last long enough for it to be worth it? -

Ppl come in on the phones and continue to use it while pissing. Could be reading emails/news story. Also notice that people are talking on the phone while in the bathroom at a higher percentage. Least once a week I hear some dipshit taking a dump while talking on his phone. I always make sure to flush twice when I notice this.

Gotcha. That makes more sense. Talking on the phone is ridiculous.Commander of Awesome;1073279 wrote:Ppl come in on the phones and continue to use it while pissing.

But even the emails and texts and stuff. Id just put the phone in the pocket for 2 minutes till im out. Sitting, well that is good to go with texting and emailing. -

Spending time on this forum is a waste of productivity. Buying a new tv is a waste of money and watching it is a waste of productivity. Think of all that opportunity cost you are missing out on!!sleeper;1072487 wrote:Hmm, could be because I think having a smartphone is a waste of money and productivity? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that you can't accumulate wealth by spending it. -

lol the tv is apparently for his nephew. I'm curious how old sleeper is cause that sounds like total bullshit, doubt he has a nephew old enough, if he even has one, that would need their own televisionPick6;1073371 wrote:Spending time on this forum is a waste of productivity.

sportchamppsI sync my smartphone with my car using Bluetooth and it allows me to check emails and respond with voice recognition. This allows me to increase my productivity because I can check and respond to about an extra 25 emails while waiting in traffic each day. When at the office I know I can save the less important emails for the drive home giving me more time to prepare presentations and meet with clients. The hour of driving each day that I can now use as a billable hour to a client easily pays for my phone and cell phone bill for a year in less then a couple months. So not only do I increase my productivity but I increase my billable hours/income.

Translation: I am not allowed having a computer or the internet at home because I have no balls and my wife is a bitch and wont let me. I also turn my phone off in case any of the guys from work send me something inappropriate (picture of a naked lady) so that my wife will not see it and flip out.thavoice;1073571 wrote:YEs...you are true on the first part...our economy would suck if people bought only what they truly needed.
