haha. I was going to criticise this post until I saw you said it is a joke. It is good to temporarily take the opposing side of what one truly believes on topics because then it becomes clear which side has problems, and which side makes sense. And your post shows being frugal is the thing that makes sense, not spending recklessly. A good way to save money is buy a cheap android phone instead of the latest apple iphone. They both do the same thing anyway. Android phone from post office in Australia- 80$ or even less. Latest iphone- 1000$. It only takes losing an iphone once for an extra loss of 920$ compared to losing a cheap android for a total loss of 80$. And 3gb of data suffices then 30$ a month pre paid plans have that, and unlimited calls/text. No need to pay 60$+ a month. If one really needs lots of data it might be worth while investing in an old optus unlimited data 2$ a day 3g sim. They came out years ago but were recalled. For only 2$ a day one gets unlimited calls /text, and the important part- DATA. So one could hot spot 10 laptops off it downloading gigabytes, and gigabytes of data a day for only 2$. They sell for anywhere from 200-1000$ in Australia. I got one for 200$, and a second android phone for 30$ from the post office which I put the sim in, and use it as a portable wireless hotspot when I'm away from my NBN at home. When I'm not using it I have the phone turned off, and so it doesn't charge me 2$ for that day.
