Why would a teenager waste money on such expensive commodity?

I know you're trying to make sense on the importance of persistent hardwork, which by the way is applaudable, but the example you cited to lend more credence to your assertion was badly thought out.

Buying a laptop is not the bone of contention here. But purchasing an irrelevant stuff as iphone 7 at a very tender age is a poor decision, a route travelled far deep into the land of misguidedness.

What's so special about Iphones sef? What can it do that other phones can't? Mtcheeew!

Oh, it's not even a Nigerian scenario. To the waste bin, this thread!

How do teenagers afford these crazy expensive phones and computers these days?

I'm 17 years old, and have an iPhone 7 and am currently building a PC that will end up costing ~$3500.

So how do I afford it?

Most people will say their parents, but mine have taught me that if I want something, I need to work for it. So I got a job.

I work 20–30 hours a week, mostly after school and sometimes on the weekend. I make $10.10 an hour, pretty good considering the minimum wage is $7.25. I enjoy my works, sometimes it can be a little stressful to balance it with school but I deal with it as best as I can. I maintain all A and B grades, so they do not suffer because of work.

And I get to afford the things I want without the help of my parents.

Good luck getting a $10/hour job in Nigeria( N5000).
Even a Nigerian graduate can only dream of that.

lonelydora:
Op, you are not in Nigeria, remember.

For here ehhh.... these girls run after men, and the boys do a lot of stealing before they can afford the phones.


Ask any Port Harcourt girl what she wants, they will always say phones not less than 100k, and you begin to wonder if the said girl is by any chance related to Dangote.

NinjaX:


Except you hail from a wealthy family. Any teen who puts his back to work, only to use the funds derived therein to get Iphone 7 needs thorough mental evaluation. And needs to redefine his priorities.

Well, to each his own...

Summer jobs

No time for laziness. Every summer it's a must I have a job. It's getting embarrassing always asking my parents. Also 17


Last summer earned 510€ in 10 days

All I had to do was clean for 8 hours pro day

Of course nigeria of today many many ladies are oloshos.

Bad decisions of babangiga, obasanjo, jonathan, buhari etc have turned many many ladies to prostitutes.

Man go survive any way.
