Reason 9: Because my parents let me have what ever I want and that's what I want so I'm going to get what I want.

What are you, 12? Why do you even need a phone? My first phone I got when I was 16 when I got my license and it made phone calls, only. When I have kids it will be the same. In fact I really like the idea of a phone that can only call certain numbers, I think it's called a firefly. If they want anything else they're working for it and paying for it themselves!

@PilotMan7700 I'm actually 16 and I have a job. But thanks for assuming, asshole.

@davidb1494

What kind of a job can a 16 year old get that lets him afford an Imac, DSLR Camera, and Iphone while nonchalantly considering switching to another expensive phone? I'm making 50ish K a year and can barely afford that kind of stuff without being concerned about other life's expenses.

@PilotMan7700 Apparently my job. Because It's bought me all of those things

no offense, but are you gay?

it's ok if you are.

[davidb1494]

@hellokitteneater No, I'm not. I'm straight.

that's the funniest thing i've heard in my life! when you get your blackberry,you'll hate it and will want to go back to your iPhone, i'm serious! i've never had a blackberry, but most people who have blackberrys have been having problems with it, they are also very sensetive, and break easily, just because all your friends have blackberrys doesn't mean you need one, they're all probably jelous of your iPhone anyway!:)

Are BlackBerry Apps at least close to as good as the iPhone? I'm trying to decide which smart phone to try and get.

[m1x3dnuts]

That was just about the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my life! When you said oh I like the Blackberry cases because they say Blackberry on them and they come in all different colours! You must live under a fucking rock cause iphone cases come in all different colours as well. This was 6 minutes that I wish I could get back and Blackberrys suck!!

@PilotMan7700 thats just in about 6 months. its not like he bought them all at once. he could easily afford an imac, his xsi, which is a shitty dslr, and an iphone for less than 2000, hang out with friends, and pay for his car insurance and car with the money you can make in a year. and most kids work longer hours on weekends, inthe summer ect. i didnt factor that in.

[PilotMan7700]

@fuckthispost Yea, it would suck to learn values and not expect everything to be given to you.

[PilotMan7700]

@JakeOlsProductions What you say may be true but what about a car and gas to get to that job. There's also insurance and registration. Assuming that this person is average when it comes to socializing, there's an occasional movie or something hanging out with friends. Just saying that having these kind of toys requires a bit of help from the parentals for sure. Oh, and being a youtube partner pays squat. I could recycle aluminum cans and get paid more than the majority of the partners out there.

[JakeOlsProductions]

hahaha. i love how people say how can you afford a imac, dslr camer, and iphone. well if he has a job, along with being a PAID YOUTUBE PARTNER, thats not real hard. imac= 1200, dslr camera= 700 iphone=300

total=2200. if he works minimun wage for 3 hours a night at mcdonalds or something, hes gonna be able to make 2200 bucks in about 6 months. considering he is 16 and doesnt have to pay for a house. so if you actually look at it, its not that hard to do

[fuckthispost]

@PilotMan7700 i feel sorry for your future kids, having such a shitty parent.

[PilotMan7700]

@duce10 Some people like to spoil their kids and not teach them the value of money. My parents taught me to save and that I don't need the fancy things in life. As a result I'm not living paycheck to paycheck and I think I have a blessed life thank you. :)

blackberrys are the best. i got my first one 2 years ago, and my dog chewed it up after a year, then i switched to windows phone and after a few months i was dying for another blackberry. im stuck with an old 9000 right now, but its better than the windows phone. i just use it as a zune now. im waiting for the bold 9900 to come out at at&t.
