View descriptionShare
 

4BC Mornings' Jason Matthews and ING's Matt Bowen discuss the rise of the "everyday small wins economy," where consumers are aggressively cutting back on luxuries like café coffees to protect their bank accounts.

Surprisingly, the data also highlights the resilience of the "$10.4 billion joy economy," proving that while Australians are cutting back on essentials, they refuse to sacrifice the hobbies and travel that bring them happiness.
