So you want to say that up until now you didn't have mobile phone at all, yet you managed to lose almost $3k dollars by 2020 on various crypto scams? I mean, I can belive that part about you buying that mobile phone thanks to signature campaign earnings and kudos for that, but this part about being your first mobile phone ever, when you could buy pretty decent new smartphone (Xiaomi for example) for $150 like 5 years ago?

Honestly, smells like bs merit fishing story to me.

It is obvious. Grin

But still @OP is successful in fishing some. but still I wanted to extend my congratulations to OP on buying his dream mobile phone creating a but I think there is some thread created where we can post our "success" story but it seems was neglected because posting on that thread will not highlight their story.

This is one of the positive things that come from signature campaigns, and one of the only results I like to see, i.e., when the proceeds go toward helping those in low-income areas of the world. People from poor and wealthy countries are basically making the same amount, yet the purchasing power is so much greater where OP lives. I find that uplifting.

And OP, props to you on getting the phone of your dreams! I don't care for smartphones much (though I do own one), but I'm not unaware that they're highly-prized objects to many people--not to mention that some of them are ridiculously expensive. Glad sig campaign earnings helped you get yours.

Depending on the brand of the mobile phone, average person in a developing country can hardly able to buy a high-end mobile phone, especially the new releases of iPhone (dream phone of most people in lower tier economy).
