Never play with an old player if not you will go home crying. Instead of doing that, I would recommend learning from them.
The old players that we would be talking about here are the superpower electronics and its accompanying gadgets like the computers, both big and handheld, the electronic game packs, and in fact, the electronics toys that they are with all their superb ways of manipulative touches and the variably feelings involved while being toyed with as we often do.
The electronics has been around for a long time and had recently been joined by its child of necessity, the computers/mobile phones with or without internet connections and together they had formed the 'old and experienced players' both in the communication industry and other basic necessary parts of human endeavors today!
Due to sheer amazement on how they work in performing some wonderful tasks to our admiration, greater number of humans, both young and old has been carried away with their wonderment and has chosen to make the clever electronics their play mates instead of watching from the bench and humbly learn from them before taking the headlong leaps that has often turned sour for many.

| The trap |
Some of these handy techs are designed to look simple and handy just like the toys that they are, giving the the elated handler or the owner the impressions of being in full control of them but unknown to them, if you don't handle it with care, you would end up becoming their puppet at your own loss both in time and money wastage while still believing that you are busily engaged.
Busily engaged blowing both your time and money away at the same time without ever knowing it until you would one day take some stocks of your addictions to them and see how far you might have gone!
Get things right here, some have their business running and meeting up with their targets all because of the wonderful gadgets, but what of you? if really that you are not doing any form of marketing that is electronically related, why stick with those toy-like gadgets as if your life depends on them? It is made to help you and not to waste your time when properly used.
If all that you could boast of from those toys that you regularly play with like the children are mere scores from various games that are meant to keep you busy as if you are really busy, why can't you read between the lines and check your addictions to them and place some time limits and save yourself a whole lots of wastage both in time and money wise?
The way some fellows usually keep busy with some of these electronics are sometimes bewildering. At times the way some persons seem to be competing with mere electronic games, may make you wonder of what's really wrong with them.
Some competitive words like these as if they are actually dealing with fellow humans are commonplace, and that is the impressions they are meant to create to keep you fully committed in them.You may be bound to be hearing some words like:
"This computer think say e go beat me, lai lai, ordinary machine, for where..., today I will tell you that brain pass brain, ah! see how I heat that car and flew like.....and all sorts of rubbish with time that could be invested into something more productive."
What these individual forgets is that whether he wins or loses, he always remain a loser because the ordinary but lifeless computer has nothing to lose, he is the one that wastes his precious time that could has been invested into something worthwhile if he is doing it to the detriment of his work.
Please get me right here. This write up is never meant to discourage people from playing their favorite computer games, which enhances some abilities in their individual make ups; but to checkmate their habits and play reasonably. OK.
What about those who play with the internet marketing stuff? This is even worse because you could lose time and physical cash at the same time because the two are related and could be done with the same electronics.
Before going into the details here, let us do this little analysis and comparison:
1. With your money, you buy the electronic game, with your money you keep it functional through charging and repairing it, and with your precious time you keep busy with it unnecessarily to the detriment of other more important things needing your attention and you terms that as whiling away time. Ok that is if it's just a game...but remember, it has been played before you ever thought of acquiring it, so unknown to you, it's just there helping you to play away your time and your resources if you don't know.
2. Again if it is the big and the new entrant into the league with some additional features to enhance it at all levels, the computer itself with cell phones that are capable of playing more than games and are also connected to the internet.... You die well! .....Because with your money your acquire them, with your money you cater to keep functional by repairing them, your money determines whether you have network in it or not, with your money, you access the internet trying your hands on various tricky and to test run other mouth watering businesses online while parting with the money of yours to register, trade, see how it works, and the process create some criminal links into your bank account that may have almost sucked you dry before your eyes opens to what is happening, all because of playing with the game owners untrained. Become wise my friend.

| Don't joke with the web |
Since you don't really know the details of how it is done, why not learn from others ( the old players) instead of playing with the net? You will go broke doing that in case you don't know. Do not play with the internet if not you will go home with broken arms and legs.
It is man-made, I agree but you can't compete with the electronics wrongly and go free just like other man-made products like cars, guns, knives, even small tablets drugs and expects to be spared either temporary or permanent harm.

| Practical example |
While it is true that the internet is changing lots of things positively, it is also a confirmed facts that the internet is also causing some untold damages around the globe due to mismanagement and the quests for some overnight riches by some greedy and new entrants.
The electronics on its own has not failed to perform or accomplish its intended purposes generally. It's just that we humans are falling seriously behind in the ways that some of us tends to overuse it leading to other wrong ideas surrounding it. If only we could learn how to use them purposefully and to desist from using it to cause harms to the others and ourselves, either physically or financially, only then would it be said that we are making vital uses of the intended purpose from the manufacturers whom I believes that their purposes for producing them are not yet being fully utilized by the consumers that are mostly bent on misusing the devices.
At times some of us tend to shift all the blames on the network providers for enticing the unwary into buying what they don't really need and all the rest marketing gimmicks they often employ to meet up with their targets.
Forget about what various telecommunication marketers may be doing to woo you into buying all the latest types of gadgets and packages. They are into their business and are out there to make some money off you whichever legal way or not too legal way they could, likewise you are not without some common senses to be easily swayed and get hooked to what does little if any to quantify your addictions to it while disregarding what really matters most in life.
At least if after all these empty years of mere fascination filled with trial and error you are not making any headway and you are not willing to humbly learn from the bigger and seasoned players who had been making substantial income from it legally, why should you keep on repeating the same mistakes and accruing unnecessary debts at the same time? Stop blowing up your precious time and hard earned money and concentrate rather on that which provides you with your present sustenance.
Learn from the field of play
The fields of play has it all; if you can't play due to whatever genuine reason that you may have or may be, you can and for sure sit among the fans and make yourself comfortable, watching, cheering, and analyzing the games of the professionals if you cares to and by so doing you are learning from them instead of prematurely and presumptuously playing with them to your own loss and shame. Yes, that's what typically happens when you are ignorantly blowing your time and money away playing with some sophisticated androids, windows, smartphones, and the rest of it's types of this world.
It is also true that among the players, are probably some who are personally known to you and may be 'ordinary' to you fine, but they know what you doesn't know at the the present, so respect them.
Likewise, that your phones and other electronic gadgets may appear to be common to you, but do not think that they are all that common especially if you do not yet know how to manipulate them wisely and profitably too.
Invest time, effort, and money wisely by learning from those ahead of you instead of continuous but aimlessly wasting money on what really does not pay you back. Stop wasting your time and money recharging and buying Data bundles just to upload one useless picture or video on any social network just to get applauded for nothing in particular.
If that is what your online engagements is all about, I will advice you to desist from that since you are not a minor who depend on others for sustenance. Do that overtime and sit back and do some necessary calculations and be surprised at what you had wasted for mere cheering from the less concerned crowds.

| Best option |
Once again let us play around this analysis and reason together:
A young man who earns #30,000 per month, out of his salary he commutes to work 25 days a month at the rate of #300, pays for his house rent at #3,500 per month, spends #10,000 on food together with all other necessary things like electricity bills and water bills etc put together at may be #2,000 or less per month. Put all these together and lets see what he has left at the end of the day. #7,000 I think. Good.
Let's assume that he had saved up enough or had borrowed to buy a good phone of about #15,000 or there about, which is not anyone's business; but this same phone aside from regular call charges for the month, takes up additional #3,000 for Data subscriptions for chatting and browsing the nets uploading and downloading different Apps from various stores which doesn't any way add to his income or solve any problem for him.
As if that is not enough, Facebook updates, 2go chatting, whats app, e-buddy, the list goes on and on, all these he does simply because he want to belong, which is not bad in itself, but in reality what does it do for me or you in return when despite all the time and money that it is taking from our pockets, we are busy struggling to update, comment, like, share, and all whatnot all these eating deep from our income, and what does it do for us in return?
Nothing! but some sheer feelings of having done that.
The statistics may be higher depending on one's income but certainly (Anaghi eji akpata etufuo aba ogaranya) little drops of things certainly adds up to become big.
What if the above analysis were that of a family man with more responsibilities? Well, the individual may have that to answer by himself.
Once again, do not play with the old and experienced players if not you will have yourself to blame. Make your time count instead by learning from them if you really have to, but if not, let us focus on that which means more to our overall income for some better and adequate planning and save for what really matters most in life.
Be a balanced man with them all!
