> An iphone costs 1 month of salary in Spain...

Of minimum salary, although there is the iPhone SE, which is ~500 euro.

Regardless, it always baffles me how people skimps on stuff that they use continuously through the day, every day.

When someone would tell me how expensive an iPhone is, which would last five, six years, just to go and purchase Chinese off brand phone from AliExpress for a couple hundred, that would last a couple years tops, I have to laugh. It's like calling someone out for buying a slightly expensive Toyota, while driving a Chevrolet.

I doubt most young people in Spain are even earning minimum salary.

Also, of course if the average person in Spain had even the simplest economic skills we wouldn't be one of the poorest countries in the EU.
