Quote of the day ~ “It feels good to be lost in the right direction”
Could you???
Well, let's dive into this digital rabbit hole. The average Aussie phone bill is about $29 a month, or roughly $350 a year. Now, if you're anything like me and have a weakness for shiny new gadgets, you're probably splurging around $2500 on a new phone every two years.
So, in reality, the average Australian is shelling out about $1600 a year on their precious device. But let's be real, I'm not your average Joe. My yearly phone expenditure (phone bill) is more like $1200, making my grand total a wallet-crushing $2500 a year.
Ouch, right?
But before you start thinking it's just designed for endless scrolling, let's consider what life would be like without it.
Imagine trying to catch up with friends at a restaurant on the weekend.
Without a phone, how would you even begin?
You couldn’t search for the latest cool spot, call to book a table, check out the menu, or coordinate with your friends.
Booking the reservation? Good luck doing that via carrier pigeon.
Need to navigate there or call an Uber? Forget about it. And what about all those little conveniences?
Listening to music on the way, knowing what time it is, snapping a photo to remember the night, loading that obligatory food shot to your socials, paying for the meal, and checking your calendar for the next catch-up.
Life without a phone would be a logistical nightmare.
So, when you break it down to the average usage of 5.5 hours a day, that's over 2000 hours a year, or about $1.25 an hour.
A dollar twenty-five an hour for the magic that is my phone?
Do it all day sir….
Never be confussed or lost on where to start your project, you can use that magic device in your hand and book a call HERE
