The Most Expensive Phone.

We live in a materialistic world. We define ourselves, our social status and our dignity in terms of the wealth we possess, the properties we own, the cars we drive or the toys we buy.

It is this need to satiate our vanity that is the beating heart of our global economy.

Companies dedicated to research, development and manufacturing of new toys for high society.

Competing with one another to catch the eye of the wealthiest 1% investors, what eventually amounts to cutting edge technology trickling down from the upper tier of society to us commoners as a brand new product.

In modern society there are products we use in our everyday life regardless what social background we belong to, but that certainly does not mean that wealthy are equal to common people in this respect.

Even if they use the same everyday necessities we do, they have the choice to stand out from the rest of the world everyday products that have been elevated in quality and sophistication exclusively for them.

Among those everyday necessities of modern society are phones. It is an important tool for some, an accessory for others and sometimes even a jewelry to show-off to your friends at gatherings.

When we as ordinary people think of smart phones, we think of popular brands like Samsung, Huawei, OnePlus, Honor, Google Pixel or LG.

If you have money to burn for a fancier choice you go for the coveted iPhone.

iPhones are expensive and those who can afford it become the envy of their friends and relatives as they symbolize prosperity of an individual.

But what if you belong to that ultra-rich class of citizens who don’t like to be associated with commoners?
