Overall
, it can be clearly seen that the biggest
one
is food and the lowest is fuel and power during 1998.
However
, it is different in 2018 where the highest is leisure and the lowest is personal goods. A closer look at the chart that in 1968 the majority of people spent their money on food which was just over a third and the highest
one
during the time frame. Meanwhile, it was different in 2018 when leisure gained more than a fifth which was higher compared with all spending by time.
Moreover
, the fuel and power were below
one
in ten which was lower than others in 1968. Similar to 1968, in 2018 not only fuel and power but
also
personal goods obtained the
last
position to allocate money and both of them were the same which were nearly 5 %.
