Abstract:
Ways of using family funds differ with age. The young families follow one pattern; the old, another. But this is to be expected since age brings changes in a person's scale of values, his ideas of what is most worth having and doing, his wants and to some extent his needs--the many inner forces that help to guide his choices of ways of spending.
