隨年齡增長而改變的消費習慣

作者：匿名分類：生活經濟

年關將至，全球正一步步進入聖誕節購物與送禮的節慶歡樂氛圍中。買禮與送禮都是份大學問，不同的年紀就有不同的抉擇。根據HS Dent 這家經濟預測公司所做的研究發現，年齡對於消費者的購物行為有很大的影響。比方說，男人年紀越大，花在買內褲的費用就越少，但是越老越喜歡買長袍。當人年紀越大，越不喜歡用塑膠餐具。不過，有趣的是在酒方面的花費，只要進入21歲之後，一直到70歲這中間似乎都沒有多大的改變。

雖然這是西方的調查數據，不過台灣的投資朋友也可看看，自己的花費習慣是比較偏向成熟的族群，還是仍屬於幼齒的青春族群呢?

一年紀越大，在雜誌閱讀上，越偏愛訂購而非零買

二年長者不喜歡用廉價餐具

十四年紀大時，花在喪葬費用的支出自然越多，不過當你真的購老時，這筆錢自然有人會幫你出

You spend more on this stuff at an old age. But once you get really old, someone else is paying.

People will always love to read.
