Intrinsic value is the value of a thing (or person) based on its internal value. It is the value per se. The thing has value in and of itself. The value is inherent (naturally in) the thing.\n\nA forest has value for timber, mineral rights, tourism dollars; a shortcut to Grandmas house… but it also is a beautiful thing, perhaps a national treasure. The forest also has intrinsic value.\n\nThen there are also the answers cited. Like Nike, the Swoosh is part of Nike’s intrinsic value. If they sold off the swoosh, the intrinsic value of Nike would go down.

If something has utility it satisfies a want or need.  These are subjective.  For example, if you mother-in-law insists you buy an ugly vase and drives you nuts until you do, then if buying the vase relieves your stress, it has utility even if you hate it.  This is the reason that many foolish decisions happen, they have utility to the decision maker.  As an example, many people bought stocks during the bubble to feel included, safe and/or excited.  The utility of YHOO at 250 had nothing to do with its real prospects (I would pay no more than 18 for it.)  It has to do with fulfilling a need, even if it makes no objective sense to an outsider.\n\nJust a note, I didn't lose money in the bubble.

"You use this proverb to say it is better to accept something that you have or you can use now than to try to get something better that you might not be able to obtain. Sometimes people just say, "A bird in the hand."\n\nIf someone says, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush," he/she means that it is better to be satisfied with something you have than to risk losing it by trying to get something better you may not succeed in getting.
