One of the most fascinating things about this topic in my view is that the perception of what is necessary has changed quite a bit. Surely if we ask people belonging to the new generations if having a cell phone is a necessity they will most likely say yes, the same with the internet.
There is a constant struggle of human beings regarding material things, I guess consumerism contributes a lot, because many believe that the more material things you have, the greater your happiness will be, or that this is synonymous with success in life.

Absolutely right, we have personal preferences and they determine the urgency of things or in short, necessities. Although modern times have changed how we look at success, there is no alternative to the sense of quenching the soul's thirst for happiness, cause even if we go after the most valuables, there is something that our soul craves and without this, we are never happy; at least not to the fullest. Now what that could be, mental peace? Maybe. Despite numerous worldly possessions, mental peace is something that often comes cheap; could be simply in the form of staying organised.
