Who would buy an iPhone 3 today?
Now...
How ridiculous does that sound today? I know plenty of people (nearly everyone) that would rather die than purchase a phone or any technology that is two years or generations old. Who wants products that are slow and not current right?
Heres my point...
If you wouldn't buy technology that is a dated... why buy into information that is? Be careful who you take advice from. A lot of people may mean well with what they tell you, however if they haven't recently been through an interview process, or if they haven't recently done any hiring, or if they don't have any connections that can truly assist you with moving forward... why take advice from them?
If you wouldn't trade places with the person...don't take advice from them. New information and strategies come out just as fast if not faster than technological advances.
Old school has it perks...just not in a new school economy.
