Over the centuries, society has been developing and progressing. The worldview of people, their tastes and preferences are changing. Each generation needs more and more technological devices and means of comfort. But what does modern man prefer to acquire?
Information
The 21st century is the age of information technology, and this is natural, because during this period there have been many technological advances. Therefore, information is clearly considered the most consumed and popular commodity. Of course, no one sells it by weight in supermarkets, like any other goods, but using the global network - a common occupation for a modern person - just proves the need for daily "saturation" of information. Do not think that information is just different text formats: news, interviews, articles and books. This includes various music, videos, games. Another proof of the high demand for information in the modern world is accessibility: everyone can access the Internet using electronic devices at hand, given that Wi-Fi and 3G points are very common all over the world.
Electricity
This item is in addition to the previous one. Electricity consumption is increasing every year. And this is not surprising, if we turn again to the previous point - the constant need for information requires constant access to information resources. The Internet is the largest information resource, but you can only access it with the help of devices powered by electricity.
Electronic devices (tablets, laptops, smartphones)
If we go to material things, then it is necessary to note electronic devices that provide communication capabilities and access to information. Moreover, at present, not only the technical characteristics of such devices, but also the name are important for a person. So, for example, it is no secret to anyone that Apple and its devices are very popular among the population of the entire globe: iPhone, iPad, iMac, etc. For many, it does not even matter how this device works in terms of technical properties, the main thing is to make it "apple". That is, the desire for prestige, to distinguish oneself from others is already slipping here.
Cars
Means of transportation have always been in demand, but in modern times the demand for them has grown significantly. There are several reasons for this. First, the life of a modern person is very mobile and hurried: a person is always in a hurry somewhere, so he needs a car. In addition, it is worth noting that the variety of car brands is becoming so great that anyone can choose a car for themselves: both a rich, wealthy person - a businessman, entrepreneur, and an ordinary middle-class person - a worker, a manager. Here, as in the previous paragraph, one can note the desire for prestige - people can overpay extra millions to make their car luxurious.
From all of the above, the only correct conclusion can be drawn - all the products in demand today respond to the actual needs of people. For a person of the 21st century, this is a need for information and prestige.
