What age group in America spends the most money? It depends on the category, but you’d think younger Americans — those less likely to be married or have kids — would lead the pack at least as far as entertainment goes. Surprisingly, though, the facts tell a different story. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), those under 25 spend an average of about $1,250 a year on entertainment. Those aged 25 to 34, on the other hand, spend over $2,200, while those aged 35 to 44 spend almost $3,000.
