Toilets or Cell phones. Which one would you choose?

Ahoy! Man has proved himself to be a social animal.

Recent studies by United Nations (UN) have indicated that the number of toilets existing for the world population is much lower than the number of cell phones existing on this planet.



Reports indicate that with the population of 7 billion. 
6 billion have access to cell phones, while only 4.5 billion have access to toilets.

Sanitation go to hell!

I want to talk and talk and talk!

My 2 cents!
Investing  the amount spent on purchasing a cell phone could be used for installing a toilet in their respective home.

A good sanitation results in keeping oneself away from diseases like diarrhea, and other atrocious bacterias that tend to grow when waste is dumped into open.

Mantra for today: Knowing one's priorities can be helpful for man's overall development.

Wow, never would have thought more people owned cell phones compared toilets. That is just crazy. I do love my phone, but seriously I think the toilet is a must have. And that is all I am going to say about that!! Voted for you as always!! :)

Wellll. On the surface it sounds crazy: more cell phones than toilets? You've got to be kidding. But then I wonder...does that include things like composting toilets or people who just "use a bush" so to speak? LOL

Cell phone for me. I can live with an outhouse or even tree if desperate. But cell service? A must

Actually though if you think each house with a toliet probably has four people inside texting each other to say dinner is ready....maybe that number isn't so crazy!

I am not going to lie... but that is kind of a scary crazy statistic! If I had to choose though... I think I would buy the toilet first! :)
