Standing at the highest point with 34% which ranked first among the five classifications surveyed in 1960, the spending on food declined gradually year by year and at the end of the period, the figure concluded at approximately 14%. The proportion of money spent on leisure ranked second; the figure plunged gradually from nearly 19% to 11% over a period of 40 years.
