91 percent of respondents spend an average of HUF 60,000 more per month, which is essentially the same as the 92 percent rate measured in the first quarter and HUF 64,000 extra spending. However, there is a significant proportion of those who can only finance their lives with additional expenses of HUF 100-149 thousand.
