                                            🚨 The Harsh Truth About the iPhone Obsession
Apple doesn’t just sell you a phone.
They sell you status. Validation. A sense of being “enough.”
Every September, millions line up (or go on EMI) not because their old phone stopped working…
…but because Apple’s marketing whispers:
👉 “If you don’t have the latest iPhone, you’re behind. You’re less. You’re not successful enough.”
And so begins the cycle:
Swipe your card.
Lock yourself into EMIs.
Feel proud for a few weeks.
Watch your “latest model” turn obsolete in 12 months.
Meanwhile, Apple’s stock price soars, and you’re left holding a depreciating gadget.
💡 Here’s the psychological trap:
They’ve turned insecurity into a business model.
Your need to “signal success” is what fuels their trillion-dollar empire.
Truth is:
Success isn’t in your pocket.
Success is in your skills, assets, health, and freedom.
An EMI doesn’t make you successful. It makes you a slave to appearances.
So before you drop ₹1,00,000 on a phone that’ll be worth ₹15k in resale, ask yourself:
👉 Am I buying this for me? Or am I buying into their illusion?
Because every time you chase “the next iPhone,” you’re not upgrading your life…
You’re upgrading Apple’s profits.
