Is having the latest technology a want or a need?
How often do you get a new cel phone or mp3 player? Did you really need a new model? Do you consider the environmental impact of these purchases? If you are addicted, how can you break your addiction?
Wants or Needs? >
wants or needs
I think some form of technology is important, but not the latest iPhone or computer. All it needs to do is work. Clothes are a need, but people should try to buy used clothing, you can find many gems in the goodwill and from local people online. I think it is often hard to resist buying things online from all over the world, but I try my best not to purchase too much, only needs.
I don't think too much about the consequences of buying a new smartphone, but now I definitely will.
