Ask HN: Why are we consuming thing we don’t need?

Hey, In the last weeks, I often ask my self, why we buy things we don’t need.

Sure, status symbols. But why dose we need a new iPhone, when we just use it for Twitter? Why do we need more then one car per Person? Why do we need this fancy gaming PC with 128GB of RAM, when we only utilize 15% of it?

Has anybody asking such things them self? And do anyone has tips to stop buying useless things?
