Luxury, as the great scholar Werner Sombart defined it, is any expenditure that goes beyond what is necessary. He then went on to distinguish between quantitative luxury, which is synonymous with the waste of goods, and qualitative luxury, by which he meant all the refinement of goods that is superfluous for the fulfilment of the necessary purpose.
