Are you sure you are not addicted to opiates?

Yup. As someone in the US the idea that opiates are “actually really great and safe drugs, just misunderstood!” is insane.

There are many things that are expensive that are nevertheless not particularly seen as “status symbols”, in the sense of commonly used to publicly display one’s status/wealth/whatever.

Is there, in your experience, a group of people that consider a phone a substantial status symbol?
