about a man in my
Neighbourhood who became
popular for engaging in money
rituals just to buy the 80's
edition of the Honda Prelude.
You wouldn't buy that car for
50k today. I Remember as a
kid, my whole street converged
to watch a truck deliver a very
large satellite dish to my
neighbour's house. Today a dish
one tenth that size delivers 5
times the value and is in almost
every student hostel room.
What about the Volkswagen
Santana, Mercedes Benz V
booth, 505 cocaine, all
overtaken by Camry, Honda
discussions and Infinity? ....
Vanity. A friend declared drinks
for the boys because he just
launched the Nokia
Communicator for over a
hundred grand in 2002. Today
that phone would embarrass the
owner and is a joke compared
to the low cost and everyday
phone. What about d MTN sim
card dat many people went
extra miles b4 they bought it
for over 30k, today you will not
buy it at N200. People are still
making the most amazing
sacrifices over the 'vainest' of
things, make enemies over
worthless material things. What
can I Say? Look back at that
one thing you want to kill or die
for today and see what
becomes of it tomorrow. Slow
down with the sense of
attachment and blind pursuit of
things, for today's 'Gold' is
tomorrow's 'Copper'..... Pls take
life as simple u can think
off.
