And the opposite, the less people use money on something, the less it's going to take a hit. Even food isn't immune to that. Let's assume we have two people: Person A buys a game once a week and eats out once every two months. Person B goes out to eat once a week and buys a game every two months. Suddenly, both of the guys income drops by 30%, where each cuts the costs to match the new level of income? |
Again too simplistic of a choice there are hundreds of things you spend money on a month, not just 2 things. In your example it's easy to say gaming would be cut, but then again aparently the person in your example only makes $200 - $250 a month so maybe he has more problems than just his gaming budget.
