That's one of the miseries of life: you "form" before making it and after making it, you see no need for it. Meanwhile, the truth is that you need that big phone, (within your size of your income ooo) now that you have not made it more than when you make it because no serious person will do business with an unknown guy using 3310 as a communication gadget. But after making it, you need it less because you are known to have the capacity to purchase an expensive phone.

andyanders:
Only poor guys show off their phones when they are nothing but claim to be someone. You see P Square and their likes buy snickers, phones and other things, they go on air an social median to announce and display them.They buy cars, they show off them off.Nonsense.

Real millionaires don't show off those material things.

What do you mean real millionaires?
I thought "million" is conventional?

Besides , face it those guys aren't poor, not just psquare but the likes of wizkid, olamide ,davido and the rest..

The fact that they are not as rich as otedola doesn't make them "poor"
Or doesn't restrict them from showing off their wealth

Its like saying otedola is broke because he isn't in anyway close to zuckerberg or even richard branson.....i mean .....otedola isn't a billionaire yet by forbes calculation (in dollars)(he's about 900million)

And yes he has a yatch (well he bought it for his wife) while warren buffett has none but is x50 richer. it doesn't make otedola a show off or a broke man

What really matters is not the price of your phone, but the value of what it does for you.

MAJOLAUTOS:


Are you aware of blackberry OpenSSL FREAK vulnerability that downgrades your SSL encryption cipher-suites to a weak one that can be exploited?

Sorry if I came off a bit too technical there. It just goes to show that Blackberry is not as secure as you think. The above mentioned is just one of the potential vulnerabilities that can impact your BBM security mechanisms.

Yh but Bb stays on top of it, considering security is what they are known for. There's a fix for it, plus if you are connected to an enterprise server, you SHOULD have added layers of firewall. (not too technically versed)

Don't be fooled. Does he have a Facebook or Twitter account? He first take selfie abi? The fact that you are unable to afford a good phone doesn't make you prudent. Those that don't use good phones can't afford it.

I remember there was a time Kanye West wasn't even using a phone...he communicated only via emails. The thing is, thousandnaires and even millionaires wanna prove to people around them that they are rich, but when you reach that billionaire status...when you rich that billy gates status...gosh! It is an entirely different feeling. Even Jay Z is still struggling to get to that billion dollar mark...you can see the difference between a Mark Zuckerberg and a Jay Z. Jay Z can make noise about his million dollar Bugatti all year, but Mark would ride to his office in a bicycle but can buy all jay's entire business empire and there won't be a single dent in his netwoth.

Lol... Na WA O.

Don't be surprised they are customised and worth millions.

What's your take?

Na lie, i nor sure say na den get am (phones)

It's a personal decision












I'm still working hard on my award-winning blog.

I said it before, you use big cars and big phones doesn't 'tag' you rich. empty barrel makes a hell of noise.

small phone with billions of naira control.

This are people who knows the value of their money and how to maintain it. You can't see them driving Lamborghini and that's why they will forever remain rich

There is no one method of living

Go with whatever floats your boat

Besto:

I didn't call kanye a billionaire; i called mark zuckerberg a billionaire. I only used kanye in the beginning of my analogy as a rich person who doesn't really flash his wealth. And yes, jay z is struggling to get to the billionaire mark...he has been hovering around half a billion for 10yrs now.

He's is an old school Billionaire

And reasonable man or woman understands phones are not assets..

Lol. Only if you knew better...

Submission in defeat. . I know every bro. Your game is stale. Niga, wake up. @ 22 I had made my 1st million. U almost 22 and u still wearing a fake gold with some 3digit bank acct? Demn! Am nt proud but u shouldn't form what u ain't "nicur".

Sorry if I broke ur balls a lill bit but what can I say?

Like i said if only you knew better..making your first million at 22 does not make you a millionaire. your 1m is less than 5kchf and you are bragging about it. What has the one million done in your life and how have you used it in such a manner that ýour 1m then is still relevant now? You keep castigating my wrist watch, its just a picture so you would never know if its fake or not.. You broke no balls.. you only displayed your folly. Good night.

callmenow:
Otedola is a Luddite. Smart phones makes for a smart future. He does not get it. He is a billionaire because of the oil subsidy scam. However, he is going down. Checkout dangote and Adenuga phones. The difference is clear.

Baba hold it there!! Otedola had been a billionaire before the subsidy issue came up now, besides Dangote and Adenuga are two very simple guys, in a way that 'll shock you. Dangote goes in 2 prado SUVs without the security vans,Mike Adenuga also uses old nokia phones,although he goes about in bullet proofed vehicles, but for their status they are ver simple.

og2711:


Guy try to reason nauu..

Do you think that Mark Zuckerberg who can buy Otedola's whole family is not using a top end phone? Otedola is using this because he is probably not too tech savvy.

Do you know any poor man that owns a Lamborghini?!!

Some folks dull, Allah!

Guy you reason well... You know when they are too hungry of FTC, they won't reason well before commenting.

some people don't understand why he's using such fones, no need for privacy setting and can not be hacked! it is more secure , no gps tracking and other spying enhancing stuff! he can do his secret deal and worry less about DSS/NIA, CIA, FBI, ETC

lalasticlala:
What's your take?

That is basically me.

I know who I am, I don't need to show of by spending or popping champagne like many Nigerian mugus.

its not his fault. we billionaires don't like big phones

Because you feel intimidated by those who use big phones, once you see a confirmed rich dude using small phone it becomes news. Make i hear word jare! You think he doesn't have a smartphone to check his email on the go? Or check stock price or view attachments while in a plane? Or Skype with his managers?
Naija how una de think sef?
Who even tell una say the phones na him get am? His iPhone 6 may be in his pocket.

He spends on other stuffs... yachts, private jet etc... it all depends on individual priorities.

What's the use of having money if you don't want to spend it...

Divide your money into proportions... invest some, save some, give some to charity and spend others.. IMO

msmon:
Listen, a rich man can always use anything. In fact, he can use Nokia 3310 in public, it doesn't matter because his real worth is very obvious.

What do think, most of this so called big phone can't last long on call and they're also very vulnerable.

Gbagbe, I no get money, make I still no get package... I'm neither Otedola nor Dangote.

I hope you know those phones cost more than 2 blackberry porshe.

The combined value of those two phones are over 1 million naira.

Don't be deceived..

That shitt is a portable Hbp device. It aint no mobile phone.

Hahahahahaha, need I tell u more? Even @ a distance, I can spot the fake. If I made my first mill @ 22 then by now u should know am miles away. Niga, u need to be self made. . Forget about all the side attraction. Back to what brought us here. There is certain stage you reach financially and resource wise and some certain things just don't tickle your fancy anymore. Am not rich bro, but am wealthy and I bless God. Nice day.
