The $100 iPhone

Several months ago my wife helped me search eBay for a durable, used iPhone.

We bought one for about 40% retail cost.
The total cost was $270 for a jail-broke phone.

We felt pretty good about our bargain phone until we learned of a friend's bargain.

She too bought a used iPhone. But she bought a newer, yet broken iPhone for about $75. Then she fixed the screen for $25!

She bought a newer phone for 20% retail, avoiding spending hundreds of dollars.

I love it when a deal comes together!

One word, drastic improvement Hope, the belief that circumstances may be surmounted through work and planning, is CRUCIAL for bountiful relationships. Any marital or money problem goes from Impossible->Possible->Probable with hope.* Katniss Everdeen feasted on hope while starving her fears. *(HT to Bryan Moran for the concept) (Photo courtesy Wikipedia)

Egoless Narcissistic people can't get enough of self. Endlessly staring in the mirror or filtering conversation through personal narratives are signs of selfishness. As selfishness and self-consumption rise, costs and ingratitude soar. The goal then is to lose ego/self so gratitude and frugal abundance will abound. Egoless people have more fun!...
