Report from CNN
says Apple has already sold out all of their Jet black iPhone 7 and just when
you are thinking “how I wish I was one of
those who could afford it” then a few hours after that line of thought, you
read another article, not just article but an insane article somewhere in the
world, in the midst of this hunger lingering all over, some persons are buying
phones for their DOGS! I mean not just phones, but Iphone7 which many persons
would never be able to afford in their lives.
I know a lot of
people would be quick to say “what is our
business, after all he can afford it” since he’s the son of 61 year old
Wang Jianlin a property magnate and one
of the richest men in China.
Yes he is from a
rich family, but then again, it still in that same China that we have people
living below what anyone would not be able to even call ‘poverty’ as they live
less than poverty stricken people. So the big question is, how does buying
these phones for a mere dog aid the lives of these poverty stricken persons ,
who would have heard the news, in anyway? Gosh, I resonate that ‘money truly
makes mad.
It’s not the first
time 28 year old Wang Sicong will be buying overtly expensive items for his dog
Coco, an Alaskan malamute as it has enjoyed a lot of other very expensive gifts
from Sicong, its owner in the past, such as Apple watches to being bought a
Fendi bag that many ladies are still dreaming of having, even if it’s ‘knock
off’. Sicong will no doubts be giving a lot of people, especially ladies,
sleepless nights with these pictures.
After I read that
article on the ‘iPhonised’ dog, just a little further on social media, I came
across this wonderful picture of a lady who adopted an almost dead-looking
child and a year later, she was seen with the child looking so healthy and
nothing like what was posted the year before. It is such things that should
draw people’s attention and so priorities should be set.
Adopt a child
today and stop throwing money around for the wrong reasons. What a dog needs is good food, good wash amongst other daily care and needs. But a child needs all that and more. So let's reach out and show more love by taking care of some of the hopeless, helpless and in some cases 'almost dead' children due to malnutrition if we have the wherewithal.
My opinion though!
