This person had a $500 budget and found that their wants like electronics exceeded the budget so they had to prioritize needs over wants. Their needs included essentials like food, clothing and transportation. Their wants were non-essential items like a phone, TV or computer but the budget did not allow for these extra items.

1. Needs & Wants
I found that with this $500 budget that my wants, which were mostly
electronics, were all too much for my budget because I had to buy things that
were essential to live.
My needs were things that were required like food, clothing and transportation
My wants were things that arent required but good to have like my phone. I
wouldve liked to have a TV or a computer but my budget didnt permit it.
