JUST IN: Billionaire CEO discovers that employees pay their bills in dollars, not company mission statements.

@MasterTainment Literally same. I'm glad I saw it yesterday because it would be ruined for me if I waited.

But they don't tell you what's buried in the fine print...

You never own the phone, they can remotely disable it if you miss a payment, your money goes to Klarna not Apple, and the feds can legally access your device without telling you.

But yeah, $17.99/month btw.

Apple customers in the U.S. will soon be able to lease an iPhone for up to two years at a price starting at $17.99 per month, the company announced on Tuesday.

The program, called Upgrade, is a partnership with Klarna, a provider of buy now, pay later loans, that will be offered at Apple’s physical retail stores as well as its online store. After passing a soft credit check, customers will be offered a one- or two-year lease on an iPhone. There will be a similar option for an Apple Watch, or a two- or three-year lease available for Macs and iPads.

@BasicAppleGuy You never own the device. Pay monthly for up to 3 years and Apple still owns your iPhone. Want to keep it? You pay the full original price minus what you've already paid.

@sixers This is a hell of a post to see on my birthday.

RIP Lindsey Graham. You would’ve loved all this talk about salads getting tossed.

[Brian @brianr33d]

@MasterTainment Just because you're not what you used to look like, doesn't mean you're ugly.

You can always get change your appearance, financial status and mentality too.

Keep moving forward, man. You matter.

When people used to print using a printing press, they would charge by the letter. So there’s a lot of unnecessary letters removed in US English.

Capitalism fucked us early on.

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Right! And we are all brainwashed to think it’s something to aspire to. I know this is old but the difference between one million and one billion is so vast I think people can’t comprehend it. One million seconds equals is 11.5 days. One billion seconds is 31.7 Years. And Elon is about to be a trillionaire. That would be 31,700 years. Now do the math in dollars. And the fact is that no one in the history of the world has ever attained that wealth by any other means then some form of domination over others. I do not begrudge financial success, but I do have a real problem when the the top 0.1% (130,000 families) hold 6 times the wealth as the bottom 66 million households combined. Put another way 905 individuals in America have twice the wealth of the entire bottom half of the country- 165,000,000 people. And it wasn’t always this way. The top 0.1 percent’s share of the U.S. wealth pie has grown 59.6 percent since just 1989.
