Why do poor stupid niggers like iphones so much?

It does to me because a country can only get rich through the citizens saving and investing and not buying a phone where the money goes elsewhere

>$600
>600 FUCKING DOLLARS IS ACTUAL AVERAGE MONTHLY WAGE IN HIS COUNTRY

OP, what the fuck country do you live in? If I seem disturbed, it is because I live in a redneck town in the middle of nowhere down here in West Virginia, and despite having a shitty poorfag-tier job, I still bring home $2700 a month.

>a country can only get rich through the citizens saving and investing

Lol. This is utter BS.

Android users watch a disproportionate amount of cuck porn according to pornhub's statistics

>~$45k year
>poorfag tier job
I know it's not a lot but you still make more than most people.

Average gross salary of American is about $3300, which is pretty high even among developed country.

So do 4channers you faggot, I'm only here for the summer so I don't count

Average income in the USA is 57k. 45K is barely more than minimum wage.

>implying most people buying this phones aren't poorfags with colossal debt working at mcdonalds

>americlaps make $3300 a year on average
and they call _us_ europoors

They pay like 10% taxes though.

>Federal minimum wage is $7.25
>most people work 40 hours a week
assuming a minimum wager works 5 days a week every week with no vacations:

7.25*40*4*12 = $13,920

Just a tad less than 45k

>Average income in the USA is 57k
household income*
>barely above minimum wage
yeah if you live in San Francisco

That depends on the state, it's more like 50% for California. There are countries in the EU which have no income tax whatsoever, it's just sales tax and corporation tax.

>my wage is higher than 90% of the other people in the country
>still can't afford iphone without going into debt or infinite installments
just

desu senpai youd look more poorer if you didnt have one

How so?

I live in brazil and normies buy fake Iphones just to look cool.
Many of them will go in debt to buy a real Iphone.
The minimum wage here is $260.
top kek

I live in CA, make 50k a year and pay 30% and get free Healthcare.

Capitalism is pretty amazing that you can buy something worth $1000 with only $600 in your hands.

And btw by "wage" I mean the monthly salary.

>50% of your paycheck goes to dumb libshit
>free healthcare
it's not free you faggot

t.Angeleno

>30% for taxes
>0% extra for Healthcare

Vs

>25% for taxes
>15% extra for healthcare

I'd rather take the former. Especially without Jewish insurance agents scraping off the top.

Ever heard of Europe ?

This healthcare that you get, this is something arranged by your employer right? and not the state?

>being part of the common wealth
And here I am laughing at you from atop of multiple buildings that I have rented.
My dad made some great investment choices in real estate in the late 90s.

does your job not give you health care?

How did 30% jump to 50%?

It's by the state.
No

I didn't realize parts of the US had badass shit like that

What you buy with the 2700 they buy with the 600.(and I'm talking about daily life shit like food and clothes and that other normie crap)

That's for 2 individuals working.
Also take into account the inflated wages in places like NYC and San Francisco.
$45k is living VERY comfortably in WV.

>eat or goes to parties
You can prep meals at home for a week+ for what a night out costs.

conciding mainly girls/professionals/Others buy Iphones they are simple and quick to use
the price is more of a satus thing because rich> poor

Having expenive things to show off means your better than everyone else.
Normies respect people with wealth because it makes you appear as a model citizen

(something/someone, other people are supposed to imitate)

Its a form of social standing and virtue signalling.)

Being this retarded.

he's from California so I'm sure he WANTS to pay higher taxes.

yeah it's great. you don't even need to be a citizen to get free health care in California. in fact, free health care is easier to get if you're an undocumented immigrant

You just said you're a cuck you cuck.
I, cuck - starring faggot user, his wife, his bull and a whole bunch of laughter.

Fucking americans.

Just nuke California already, ffs.

>not knowing the difference between mode and mean.
fuck off summer

Literally how.

Nigga, how in the hell does $2700 x 12 give you "~$45K"? earns about $33K which is barely above the national poverty level.

Yep, you're a European poster. The level of dumbfuck in your post can only come from a euroshit.

In what world do you think Americans make 3300 a fucking year. That's monthly

yes yes sir plz come to Gurupreet's jawa coding doctor help he will give you best jawa coding practice only 1500 rp

Apparently you're the one mixed up, his post doesn't conflate those in any way

Hey underage, he said "take home", which means that's what goes in his bank account AFTER the government takes a nice chunk of his pay.

Pic related is about how much he would have to earn to take home $2700/month.

>all the unfortunately ultra-poor foreigners in this thread
Holy shit. I have a lot to complain about and I personally feel that I'm underpaid at my job, but the very fact that an Iphone X only costs me slightly less than a weeks wage is something I ought to appreciate.

I'm not belittling the non-Americans ITT, but I genuinely can't imagine having to go into debt just to pay for a simple fucking smartphone.

The fuck are you on about? I'm American and he's correct

>$45K a year
>more than most people
Does your definition of most people include literal children, mexican illegals, and non-pensioner seniors?

>"The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a median personal income of $865 weekly for all full-time workers in 2017."
That works out to right about $45k, and a lot of people are working part time, involuntarily.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_income_in_the_United_States

>That works out to right about $45k
So how does being in the literal 50th percentile of income earners put him above """most people"""?

>moving goalposts
you need to go back

Full-time income earners.
Many people between 20 and 60 are working part time. They make less, and that would push him over the majority.

If you had read the page, you would see:
>The U.S Bureau of the Census has the annual real median personal income at $31,099 in 2016
But I guess it's just easier to post brainlet wojacks.

mad poorfags

>living in a big city

Why does anyone do this outside of easy gay sex or a desire to be around minorities? If you live in a small town and work in IT then you'll live like a king with as many gay iPhones as you want.

i get 400€ a month for 12 hours of factory work

Brazilian herd is dumb as fuck.

We already established it's not "free" if you you pay with taxes

Only retards go in debt for a phone or a car, but it's pretty common here in eurocuckland.

What country do you live in? I've lived in Ireland and Holland. Almost nobody has a car in Holland everyone uses bikes, and everyone in Ireland has a beater car because of bad roads and salt that rusts cars, there is literally no point buying an expensive car, the undercarriage will be rusted to fuck in a year and the suspension ruined. Also in Ireland atleast no bank would even give you a loan for a phone, they'd tell you to fuck off, and nobody gets a billpay phone unless your job pays for it. Android is way more popular than iPhone too.

Learn 2 economics fren

Nah going in debt for a new car is pretty common and there’s nothin wrong with it.

being below that. feels bad

lmao I make more than any of those figures, but feel free to remain willfully ignorant of economics.

New car literally loses like 30% of its value as you drive it off the lot.
Buy one 2 years old, it's practically new but someone else has eaten the worst of the depreciation for you.

Why the fuck do iphone screens have a disgusting yellow tint?

I earn 1300€ a month as a junior developer in Spain with 1 year of experience.
I think the minimum wage is like 600 or 700€, most people I know get paid less doing shit jobs.

Not everyone has it easy like Americans.
Imagine buying a GTX 1080Ti on your salary, now imagine doing it on mine.

A 2 year old car has less warranty and its price is not much lower than a new one. Also the “worst of the deprecation” of a car starts at the 4th year.

Besides, they’re not that easy to find since nobody sells his car after just two years of use.

Also the 30% thing is ridiculous. More like a 10%.

Well, not everything is great in America.

My country's monthly average wage is about $500 in the capital, minimum wage $300 formally employed but 70+% of the people work in the informal economy. Hardware is priced about 25% more than in America. Feels bad man.

>Nigga, how in the hell does $2700 x 12 give you "~$45K"
>what are taxes

Oof, what country?
What are your specs? If I have anything better I'll give it to you.

Projecting this much?

not true usually

This. Money isn't an issue for me and I keep using my OnePlus 3T. If it fucks up I'll look at a 5. No sense in spending so goddamn much on a phone.

I earn around 1900 EUR a month in Poortugal (SW dev also). And the mininum wage is around 600 EUR here also.

And yeah, Americans have it really fucking easy. My wage is pretty good I'd say for national standards (I'm somewhat close to the wage ceiling for regular SW devs in Portugal) and even by saving around 70% of it, I won't even be close to FU money even if I was able to maintain this wage and savings rate for more than 20 years...

Poortugal is so rigged it's not even funny.

This.
A decent paying job in a low CoL area is no match for my autism.

Holy shit
How can yuroshits be this dumb?

Not everyone works minimum wage you europoor fuck

Dear faggot, please read the message I was replying to:
>45K is barely more than minimum wage.
Clearly it isn't "barely more".

Oops.
Guess I'm still a retarded yank

t. brainlets

They're called Europoors for a reason.
