美国人是怎么花钱的

1.彩票:相比于书籍、视频游戏、电影和体育赛事的门票,美国人更喜欢购买彩票。2018年,美国彩票消费总额高达700亿。

2.医生和牙医:美国人花在医疗上的公共资金在全球排行第三。 3.住房:美国人在住房上的花费占到收入的26%

4.出租车、飞机和火车:除了汽车以外,美国人在私人交通上的花费高于加拿大、英国和日本。

5.教育:美国人在教育上的支出高于任何其他发达国家,大部分资金来自父母和私人基金会。在美国,每位学生年均总支出为15000元。尽管花费巨大,美国学生在国际测试中仍落后于其他国家。

6.处方药:美国人每人每年在处方药上的花费为1000元,比其他任何国家都高。 7.政治:美国人在政治上的支出高于任何其他国家,看看美国总统选举就知道。

8.旅游:在出国旅行上,美国人的支出高过大多数其他国家。2018年,出国旅行的美国人消费了1120亿,同年,中国人消费为1650亿,不过中国人口基数比美国大得多。 接着,我们来看看中美消费观念的不同。

一、家庭住宅方面:中国人会把大房子、豪宅看成是富有的象征,有钱人才能住上别墅。美国人把住房看成是温暖的窝,房子的大小取决于家庭需要。

二、汽车购买方面:在中国人眼里汽车比住房更能明显地显示社会地位,开奔驰、宝马非富即贵。中国车价高是有名的,而且买车位的价格也不低。在美国,汽车就是代步工具,最受欢迎的汽车价格在2-3万美元之间。

三、请客吃饭方面:中国人在吃上很阔气,请客要满桌席,菜只有剩下了才显得主人大方。在美国胡乱点满满一大桌子菜,非但不会给人豪爽的感觉,反而会被认为是素质低或者头脑有问题。

四、服饰方面:中国人穿衣戴帽喜欢名牌,而买日常服装则喜欢找打折的买。美国人不太刻意追求名牌,平时买衣服喜欢到大众化的商店购买,而到了购物季,则会到专卖店里去买减价的名牌衣服。

五、教育方面:中国父母在孩子身上肯花钱,而且从幼儿园抓起,生怕输在起跑线上。小孩子从上学起就要课后参加这个班那个班,家长为此要花大笔钱。美国人养孩子叫放养,要保证孩子有足够的营养,生活环境要舒适。而在教育上,从学前班到12年级,家长基本上不需要花钱,美国人也少有让孩子课后参加各种补习班的做法,因此在孩子普通教育上,美国人花钱并不多。

六、旅游方面:中国人旅游就像采购一样,有的人到美国带着一箱方便面每日充饥,回国时皮箱子里装的都是名包、名牌服装,而且还直说真便宜。美国人旅游是放松或是开眼


界,欣赏各种文化。所以美国人在中国旅游的花费比中国人在美国旅游的花费要低很多,皆因美国人旅游就是旅游,购物只是买些特色产品。

七、送礼方面:中国人送礼的理由可以有无数个,红白喜事要送礼、孩子满月要送礼、搬新房了要送礼、找人办事还是要送礼。美国人不能给公务员送礼,亲朋好友送礼多选在圣诞节,一个贺卡、一件小礼物,只要让人感到温馨就可以了。

八、储蓄方面:中国人存钱的目的不是为了自己享用,而是为子孙后代造福,老了只能指望儿子养老。美国父母有养育儿女的责任,但儿女在法律上却不担负养活父母的责任,所以美国人积攒养老钱是从工作那天起就开始,攒钱的目的不是为了儿子娶媳妇,而是为了自己养老。



How Americans Spend Money

1. Lottery: Americans prefer to buy lottery tickets to books, video games, movies and sports events. In 2018, U.S. lottery spending totaled 70 billion.

2. Doctors and Dentists: Americans spend third in the world on public funding for health care.

3. housing: Americans spend 26% of their income on housing.

4. taxis, planes and trains: Americans spend more on private transportation than Canada, Britain and Japan, except cars.

5. Education: Americans spend more on education than any other developed country, and most of the money comes from parents and private foundations. In the United States, the total annual expenditure per student is 15,000 yuan. Despite the cost, American students still lag behind other countries in international testing.

6. prescription drugs: Americans spend 1,000 yuan a year on prescription drugs, higher than any other country.

7. politics: Americans spend more politically than any other country, just look at the US presidential election.

8. travel: Americans spend more on travel abroad than most other countries. In 2018,112 billion Americans traveled abroad and 165 billion in the same year, but China's population base is much larger than the United States.

Next, let's look at the differences between Chinese and American consumption concepts. Family housing: Chinese people will see large houses, luxury houses as a symbol of wealth, rich people can live in villas. Americans see housing as a warm nest, and the size of the house depends on the needs of the family.

Second, car purchase: in the eyes of the Chinese car than housing can clearly show social status, driving Mercedes-Benz, BMW is rich or expensive. China's high prices are famous, and the price of parking spaces is not low. In the United States, cars are walking tools, and the most popular cars cost between $2-3 million.

Third, treat dinner: the Chinese eat very rich, treat to fill the table, only the food left to appear generous host. In the United States, a large table full of food will not give people a sense of boldness, but will be considered low quality or brain problems.

Clothing: Chinese people like famous brands to dress and wear hats, while buying daily
