Great mindset.
Don't buy decent equipment to increase productivity, buy cheap hardware because it (most likely will be) stolen at some point!
Also don't make decent money because at some point you will most likely become a victim of identity theft.
Oh and make sure you live in a run-down old shack because someone is probably going to rob you otherwise!
Stop making yourselves a target people...
- chrisjsmith 15y agoIt is decent equipment - it's just not new and shiny. It is as good now as it was when it was new. Spending 1000GBP more will not increase my productivity but it will make me have to work harder to pay for it therefore taking time away from things I deem more important. I make enough money to be happy and not sacrifice time with my family. I live in a nice house in a nice area (which my family appreciate) - I can afford it because I don't have to pay for a new car and MacBook Pro every year :-) I am not a target. I am just a person in the crowd not flashing white earphones around. Oh did I say: I have a family who are more important than shiny stuff.
- Super_Jambo 15y agoWhat on earth functional laptop are you running for 80GBP? I've a Lenovo T60 which cost £300 refurbished. Had to get extra Ram, HDD and HDD bay. I really wouldn't want anything with a smaller feature set so I'm kinda intrigued!
