Why do "you" buy or continue to buy stuff? And what percentage of what!
Question: rather than a want?
Answers: rather than a want?
these days i attempt to shop for need instead of want but heck it's all too tempting that's why so many people are in debt but i promise myself this year i'll do better cause it's just pure senseless.
Of course. Human beings have a need for novelty and buying "stuff" is one way to fulfill that need. We also have a gathering type of instinct, IMO.
Right now with the rising gas prices, just about everything is a need. But even my needs fit into the want category. I need food, but want great food! I need heat, but want heat from the wood stove instead of the propane tank. I need the Packers to win, but I want them to reach the Superbowl! Stuff like that!
