Is having the latest technology a want or need?, having the latest technology is definitely a want,people always want to have the latest technology when they have items that are perfectly fine but it's the "want" that brings them to go out and buy the latest items. People should just go out and buy the things they need rather than want, only when the item you have is old you should buy a new one.

I completely agree there are many people I know that value non essential material things over necessary items like food. Although it is cool to have the latest apple product or an expensive pair of shoes, people need to realize that those are not essential and should first work on getting important things for life.
