Nothing is new here.
This isn’t that different from when I was a kid twenty years ago. Only instead of phones (though we all had phones back then too, even if they weren’t smart), it was game consoles, or Pokémon cards, or beanie babies or whatever.
Only difference is about $1000 give or take a few bucks.
Yeah you’re not wrong about that. Although some people went hard into the beanie babies. And the Pokémon cards actually.
If you were into warhammer you resigned yourself at a young age to never having money. Those things eat up an ungodly amount of money.
That’s fair, I’m actually thinking of magic the gathering at the moment. Luckily my friend was given a huge chest of cards like hundreds and hundreds of cards, so we never had to buy any.
Check out MTG:Arena. Great online adaptation if you haven’t seen it yet.
Oh man I didn’t even think about magic. Yeah that’s definitely a big on. I was lucky enough not to fall into that hobby.
Assuming a new iPhone every 2 years, that’s still pretty on par with historical premiums that would be being paid in the same timeframe for the “in” clothing brands. Designer jeans and Lululemons come to mind.
Accounting for inflation? Maybe not much of a difference when talking about game consoles…
Yeah I don’t know where this guy has been for the last 70 years but consumerism came for kids a long time ago.
Hell, kids shows have been essentially advertising platforms for decades. Shows and movies exist to sell toys and make profits.
