The Goose That Laid Golden Smartphones 2.0: The Smartphone Edition

Rajiv was the kind of man who thought just buying gym shoes counted as exercise. His latest failed venture was a food delivery app called “Biryani by Bicycle”—he forgot that he didn’t even own a bicycle.

So when a traveling salesman offered him a goose with the promise, “This bird will change your life,” Rajiv thought, “It’s Cheaper than therapy. Let’s try.”

The Miracle Begins

The next morning, Rajiv heard a loud CLUNK! from the kitchen. He peeked inside and gasped—in the goose’s nest was a brand-new golden iPhone 17 Ultra Max Pro Plus++ (the model hadn’t even been released yet).

Rajiv screamed so loudly, three neighbors unsubscribed from his WhatsApp Good Morning messages out of fear.

He sold the phone and immediately upgraded his lifestyle.

• No more Maggi dinners. Only sushi.
• No more autos. Only Uber Premium.
• No more colony gossip. Just “networking events” with mocktails.

Every day, the goose laid a golden phone: iPhones, Samsungs, Pixels, even one Blackberry (Rajiv donated that to history).

Greed Gets 5G Speed

Soon, Rajiv’s house looked like a phone store at festive sale. He had so many phones, he started using them for absurd things:

• One phone as a coaster for chai cups.
• One as a remote control for the ceiling fan.
• One as a doorstop.

His Wi-Fi password became: “IamRicherThanAmbani123.”

But Rajiv wasn’t satisfied. “Why wait for just one phone every morning? If I cut open the goose, I’ll find the entire Apple factory inside!”

The Big Mistake

That night, armed with scissors and greed, Rajiv became a “DIY surgeon.” The goose honked nervously, but Rajiv was too busy imagining himself launching “GoosePhone 1.0.”

Inside? Just half-digested corn, a broken SIM card, and one very angry goose.

From that day, the goose stopped laying golden phones.

Rock Bottom

Now, Rajiv spends his days running a tiny mobile repair shop called “Rajiv Goose Telecom.” He fixes cracked screens with Fevicol and tells every customer, “I was once the iPhone King of Malad.”

The goose? She just sits in the corner, honking every time Rajiv watches “Shark Tank India.”

Moral of the Story

Greed is like accepting the strange goose from a salesman—it promises free rewards but crashes your whole personality. Rajiv could’ve lived happily ever after with one golden smartphone a day, free upgrades forever, and a goose that basically worked harder than any IT intern.

But no. He wanted everything at once. And what did he get? Corn, feathers, and eternal shame. Imagine going from Face ID to a Snake game in a single night. That’s what greed does.

The truth? Happiness isn’t about having all the golden phones in the world. It’s about appreciating the one you already have—whether it’s a shiny new gadget, a working Wi-Fi connection, or just the fact your goose hasn’t pecked your bald head yet.

So, remember:

Greed will drain your battery faster than Instagram Reels.

Contentment is golden.
