I used to work at a mobile phone store, earning only 1300 yuan, with accommodation provided but no meals.

I found out that a colleague was using a Nokia smartphone worth over 4000 yuan, with Symbian OS.
I was quite surprised at the time because he would need to save at least half a year's salary to buy that phone.
Later, I also saw the company's boss, who was worth over a billion yuan, had his own factory, and by 2011, when Xiaomi had already come out,
he still used a feature phone that could only make calls, and it was peeling off paint.
The more difficult life is, the more tired life becomes, the more one needs to reward oneself.
The lower you are, the more you need decoration and adornment.
He was just counting on that little bit of stuff to motivate himself.
