CIG: Hungarian pensioners spend on home activities rather than on holidays

The Hungarian pensioners spend only the one-fifth of the amount on holiday than the European average – according to a recent analysis processing domestic and international statistics of the CIG Pannonia Life Insurance Company.

According to the communication sent to MTI on Thursday, the Hungarian pensioners are staying at home, reading 45 minutes a day, and spend more than two hours in front of the television.

Because of staying at home they spend more on housing, food consumed at home, and due to the aging their health expenditures also increase. They spend an average of 7,200 HUF per month on this purpose. (MTI)
