Summary

On 31 October, Daniel sold his month-old iPhone 11 in Japan for ¥100,000, losing about ¥30,000 from its September purchase. He considered the iPhone redundant beside his Samsung S10+, iPad, laptop, and GoPro, and intended to sell his Osmo Action. Frequent Airbnb moves and cleaning fees consumed much of his income; selling unused electronics would reduce expenses and luggage.

Insight

This continues his recurring cycle of gadget excitement, regret, resale, and financial self-correction.
