“Never Give Money To Someone Who Uses Better Phone Than You” – Reno Omokri by Drinokrane: 1:47pm On Jul 19, 2019
A former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has advised not to give money to people who use better phones as that would amount to ‘stupidity’, Igbere TV reports.

Mr Omokri said this in a tweet on Friday.

He said that a mobile phone is a communication gadget and not a status symbol.

Omokri added that anyone who gives money to people with better phones is ‘enabling their false lifestyle’.

“A phone is a COMMUNICATION gadget, not a STATUS symbol. NEVER give money to someone who uses a better phone than you. Doing so is not CHARITY. It is STUPIDITY. You are enabling their FALSE LIFESTYLE. CHARITY funds NECESSITIES, not LUXURIES,” he said.

The former presidential aide also said that one of the things that keep poor people poor and in debt is the habit of upgrading their phones.

“One of the most USELESS habits that keeps POOR people POOR and in DEBT is the habit of UPGRADING your perfectly good PHONE just because APPLE, SAMSUNGMOBILE or TECNOMOBILE have introduced a new one. Do you see RICH people being that STUPID?” he queried.

Very true words. I dont give to beggars on the streets. I seek for widows and orphans first in the household of God.

In addition, You might think it is kindness to spend what little money you have on the poor. But it is actually kinder to invest your little money and grow it so you become wealthy enough to help even more poor people. $100 feeds a few, but $1 million can feed a whole community.

Please read, a true life story.

A man had three beautiful girlfriends but didn't know which one to marry. As a test, he gave them N2,000,000 each to see how they will spend it.

The first girlfriend went to get a complete makeover. She came back and said. Here I am "I spent the money so I could look good to you cos I love you so much".

The second went shopping. Bought iPhone X-max, iPad, and other luxuries for the boyfriend. She came back and said " I bought you all these gifts cos I love you".

The third collected the money and invested . Afterwards, the money doubled and he returned to the boyfriend. He gave him back his money and said " I invested the money. Here is the capital, the interest has been invested for our future. I did all cos I love you ".

The boyfriend thought for so long how they've spent their money. At last, he decided to marry the one with the biggest breast.

in as much as there are elements of truth in Reno's tweet, there are many exceptions to what Reno is trying to say. personally I love taking pictures of people/nature/events etc i find interesting and beautiful. this may inform my decision of getting a better phone with good camera and not necessary for show off. so that shouldn't necessarily inform your decision whether to render financial assistance or not.
