Joneses show cost of keeping up is costly
A study by the Bureau of Labor Statistics breaks down the budgets of a typical four member urban family across low intermediate and high living standards. It finds the Joneses spend about 10,933 to 15,971 yearly, with taxes and housing driving most differences. Even with higher spending, the extra goods only amount to about 1,857 in extra value, suggesting that keeping up may not pay off. The column notes the data reflect spring prices and urges readers not to chase higher living standards.
