IPhone 14 And Salary Earners.
~1.1 mins read
Apple officially launched the four models of its new iPhone 14 series But for an average Nigerian worker to afford the latest phone, it will take over three years of diligent work and full savings to be able to afford the latest models.
Naira depreciation and other factors will make this year's iPhone the most expensive for Nigerians. According to information on the Apple website, the iPhone 14 Pro (254GB) model of the new series will start at $1099.
The $1099, when converted with the official exchange rate of N436.50, comes to N479,713 without other charges.
But with the challenges of getting dollars, it is expected that importers will have to price the new phone at the black market rate before adding other charges.
On Tuesday, September 13, the black market rate was N705 to the dollar, implying that a new iPhone could start at N774,795 and go up from there if additional charges are included.
A report even suggested that iPhone 14 Pro pricing in Nigeria will be around NGN1,440,000 in Lagos and NGN1,540,000 outside Lagos for the 6GB RAM + 256GB ROM.
An example based on this suggested report, any Nigerian earning N30,000 the national minimum salary, who chooses to proceed would need to work for at least three years. That is if the employee decides to save his or her whole 48-month pay.
This leaves us asking how people who do not earn up to 30,000 have been able to afford iPhones in the past.

England Royalty Wahala
~0.8 mins read
This is Marion Crawford, the nanny that gave her all to teach and train Qüeen Élizabeth II and the Qûeen's younger sister Margaret.
It was Crawford who taught young Princess Élizabeth much of what later made her fit for the throne as Qúeen Élizabeth II.
Even though Crawford had a long-term relationship that was due for marriage and the princesses were well of age, Crawford as a nanny, wasn't allowed to marry or leave the royal family until then Princess Élizabeth had engaged Prince Phillip.
For 17 years, Crawford literally gave her all for the röyal family, but in the end the röyal family cût her off!
They stopped giving her pension, kicked her out of the grace-and-favor house they gave her in the Kensington Palace, and in the end when Crawford dìẹ̀d, Qüeen Élizabeth II didn't even send her a flower or mourn her.
Crawford's offence was that after she retired, she published a book that shared her experience about all the years she served in the royal household.
