All good things can only be built or created, not bought.
More turbo thoughts and ideas:
- Build a hyper-car, don’t buy it.
- Build a dope PC, don’t just buy a new Mac
- Don’t just buy a new iPhone– get some hackable android and mod it out.
- Don’t buy expensive designer clothes; design them yourself
- Don’t use Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube … just make your own social media!
