In this research empirical data has been collected from the students living in student apartments through the survey questionnaire. The respondents were given five time variances such as today, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year to present their preferences between luxury and necessity products of equal value. After collecting and analyzing the survey data it was found that majority of the respondents prefers the necessity rewards in shorter period of time whereas in the longer delay they prefer the luxury rewards.
