The perils of Impulse Tech

Curb your tech-tosterone when cheap thrills beckon and save up for the Big Deal instead

    AS MOST of you know, buying tech products or gadgets is not an inexpensive endeavour, which is why many of us go looking for the best deals possible, whether it be at big box retailers or on digital marketplaces such as Lazada or that wild west, Qoo10.

    However, affordability can sometimes be a double-edged sword.

    First things first. It's your money, so you can do what you want with it, no problem. But having been a keen observer (and sadly, purchaser) of the tech world for a while, I can say it's not the big buys that get you, because you would have done your homework on those and pulled the trigger when you felt the time was right.
