What is the best way to say "need" for something that you already have but must keep. I see egeō, but it seems to imply needing something that one lacks. I just want to make sure it is a good word for both senses, or if there is a better word.
Need (as in must have)

It doesn't seem like egeo works here.
So far, it seems like the idea you're going for is something along the lines of "necessary to preserve/protect/maintain" (necesse servere) or "necessary to have/possess" (necesse habere).
What did you specifically want to use this for? Some more context could be helpful.

Maybe as in the sense of I need my money. (I have money, I don't lack it. I just cannot do without what I have)
