So, how do you justify wasting money on electronics you don't need?
Like upgrading from 2nd gen intel cpu to 3rd gen just because MUH NUMBERS, or smartphones because muh new android or muh 1GB RAM more.
Why won't you use money in better way?

Define 'better way'

I have enough income to not have to think too hard on a few hundred dollars.

Shitposting on /g/ about how you have the best smartphone and computer is the only thing that gives a lot of theses autists validation.

I don't.

I bought a new phone that does 4g because it'll be cheaper in the long run to get internet this way.

I don't waste money on electronics I don't need. The last time I replaced my phone was because the old one stopped working. Ditto when I replaced my tablet. Ditto my last motherboard upgrade.

I suppose I do spend some amount on electronics I want but don't strictly need, but I view spending money (in moderation) on things I like to be better than just hoarding it and not spending any more than I must.

I don't personally, but a lot of people on this board seem huge consumerist whores. I try to be the change I want to see.

Still use a smartphone from 2011, works perfectly with CM11.
Don't follow the latest trends or gimmicks.
Always look for cheapest/high quality product ratio.
Try to repair instead of buying new one.
Don't care about brands but avoid MS, Google, Sony, Disney etc all those companies that push internet censoring, throttling and surveillance laws.

I don't. I still use a dumbphone. I buy things that fit my use case and nothing more.
