Need vs Want


Have you ever wonder about it?
Have you ever know your needs and your wants?
Even so, have you truly know to separate the needs and the wants?

Some of us, will say "Yes, we know how to differentiate that"
Some of us says "Nahhh, Does it really matter?"
or Some of us will says "If I want it means I need it"

The truth is that............none of us truly know what we want and what we need exactly !!!!

For example, for the past 10 years we keep saying that we want the phone which has all of function where it will enable us to use anywhere & anytime. But the truth is we take IPhone as a sample, from what we've noticed/heard/see over the past year or so, a majority fraction of iPhone users do nothing more with their precious gadgets than make calls and send texts.

So the basic question is........is it worth it? Do we really need it? Do we need the 3mp phone camera, while by the end of the day we still using our digital camera to take picture? Do we need 8gb of storage just to keep our songs & watch video, but by the end of the day we still listening to the radio & watch TV? Do we need wifi connection phone, while we still using our desktop/laptop to access the internet?

I'm talking not on the phone perspective only, but more on our life. If we able to separate out what we need and what we want, we should be able to live more happily and not to spend much on things we think we might need them.
