The fastest-growing sector of the population consists of individuals aged 65 and older, a group that will play an increasingly important role in the future economy.

The writer describes recent research on consumer expenditure patterns in retirement and the use of regression analysis to explore differences in expenditure patterns. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
