▶ Your Answer : Unquestionably, new devices play a significant role in people's daily lives in many of the places where they work or play. A large number of people think that it is a good idea to buy new technological equipment as soon as it is available, while others think that it is better to wait until many people have purchased it. Both sides may have their own reasons to support their views. If I were asked to choose one, I would say it is better to buy a new device as soon as possible. There are several reasons as follows. Above all, when people buy a cutting-edge device as soon as possible, it can contribute to an increase in their overall happiness. It gives them a chance to build their personal characteristics as an early-adapter, and thus be confident about themselves. High confidence tends to prevent people from feeling inferior to others. For example, when my oldest brother was in high school, he used to feel depressed thinking that his life became inferior to others and an exhausting routine. He spent the whole day studying all academic subjects, hoping that he could outdo others. Even though he made a constant effort, it was not easy because all of his classmates were working as hard as he did. Moreover, it was difficult to make a new friend he could rely on because all of them seemed too busy and indifferent to others, treating each other as rivals. However, he was able to overcome his feelings after he bought the latest MacBook and the iPhone. Many people around him started to want to talk with him and respect him, allowing him to be optimistic, stronger, and confident about himself. In addition, he was able to not only make a lot of new friends who interested in the new technological devices but also excel all throughout high school because he completed his assignments quickly and easily by using the devices. Eventually, he was able to receive straight A's in his classes and be happier than before. If he had waited until many people have bought the MacBook and iPhone and bought them late, he would not have been able to escape from his depression and meaningless life. In brief, I strongly believe that the advantages of purchasing new equipment as soon as possible far outweigh those of waiting until enough people have bought them for the reasons I have mentioned above. All in all, the importance of high confidence cannot be overestimated in life.
