Abstract

This Study Examines How Income Inequality Significantly Patterns, Highlighting That A Wider Income Gap Leads To Distinct Consumption Behaviors Between High And Low-income Groups. This Study Examines The Complex Relationship Between Consumer Buying Habits And Income Inequality, Illuminating How Consumers' Conduct Is Dynamic In Reaction To Changes In Personal Financial Circumstances.
