What is need and what is want?

Answer 1

"Need" is something that is essential for survival like food, water or shelter. "Want" is something that you don't really need, but if you had it, it could make your life a bit better. Sometimes, the word "need" is exaggerated, like in this case: someone says that they "need" a jolly rancher candy, they don't really need it, they just REALLY want it.

Answer 2

Needs are the basic requirements of human beings which are naturally exist means default requirement of human being such as food, sheleter and clothing. Marketers never perform special role in creating needs nor they can do. Wants are needs shaped by culture and social values and demands are wants backed by purchasing power.

Answer 3

In today's society, our needs and our wants seem to get integrated and deviate from our actual needs and wants. Needs: something that oneself cannot ecologically & biologically live without. Without a single need, the human race cannot exist besides unhuman-like adaptation skills. Want: a want is something humans desire that is completely non-related toward human survival. There are some that tip-toe the want/need border.
