May be an incident where they could not understand how much things they take for granted cost to the normies, a flagrant disregard for morals or ethics, a blatant show of arrogance or disconnectedness, or anything yould like to share.

    Luxury computing devices are the same as basic cooking tools, you’re right!

      A tablet is not a luxury device.

      The poster also does not say that poor people buy the high end tablets but rather that when they do buy devices they opt for insurance.

      Rich people see a tablet as a disposable item that they can afford to replace.

      Poor people see a tablet as an investment that must be protected.
