Nine-year-old’s lavish Christmas list has people stunned as he asks for an iPhone, credit card and TWO laptops
AS we're sure all parents will agree, a key part of any family's festive celebrations is trying to manage your children's expectations of Santa.
And while most of us still like to spoil our kids around the festive season, one set of parents have been left in hysterics after their nine-year-old son asked for an iPhone, credit card and TWO laptops this year.
Not to mention the £213 in cash, extensive camping equipment and some of his favourite toys which were also added to his list for good measure.
Nigerian entrepreneur Oloye Akin Alabi shared a photo of his son's wishful list with his 160,000 followers last week.
Oloye's son included nine items on his extravagant list - but funnily enough, he appears to have pondered over the camping equipment and Roblox toys the most.
While his wish for cash, laptop, iPhone and credit card were scribbled down without hesitation, the little boy originally thought about asking for a tent before asking for upgrading that to a whole set of camping equipment - we're thinking sleeping bags, camping chairs, lamps, THE LOT.
What he asked for:
- £213 in cash
- Two laptops
- Camping equipment
- iPhone
- Roblox Jailbreak Museum Heist Toy Set
- Roblox T-shirt
- Roblox Jeans
- Roblox Security Toy
- Credit card with the PIN '0000'
And while the latest iPhone also topped this 10-year-old girl's Christmas wishlist too, we can't help but admire the boy for wanting to set up a credit card and savings account at such a young age.
Fortunately for his parents, the boy's Roblox toys and merchandise were on the much more affordable side at £40 for a museum heist set.
Unsurprisingly, other Twitter users also found the lavish Christmas list completely adorable - and argued that the nine-year-old could follow in his father's footsteps and become a businessman himself.
After the tweet racked up over 2,000 "likes", one user replied: "This young man isn't playing at all."
Another questioned: "After [£213], he still wants a credit card? Lmaooo."
Meanwhile, others questioned what the little boy wanted with two laptops rather than one - with some pondering if the spare was for his girlfriend or if he was planning on opening an internet cafe from his bedroom.
In awe of the wishlist, a third replied: "'Credit card with the pin 0000. This young man is a legend." Agreed.
