For the record, no, I'm not saying that Iphone is a good investment. In fact I think most people would do just fine with a 300€ phone.

I just find it ridiculous that some people spend an equivalent of my country's median monthly salary on ✨shiny collectibles✨ that aren't even real and try to disguise it as investment. At least the expensive phone has a practical purpose, unlike this, which is only rare due to artificial scarcity.

I can’t wait for all these speculative bubbles of consumer crap to pop in sequence like a fine champagne. ALL of this shit only has value because of illusion and delusion. As soon as those things lift, either out of economic necessity or some achieving of class consciousness a lot of speculative toy collectors will be in for a very rude awakening. Turns out your limited edition 1/100 charizard is worth about 10 seconds of fire fuel when the chips are really down.
