Another major significance of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between the economies of Nigeria to how Nigerians spend in relation to their income. From the various studies as well as discussion mentioned earlier, it is apparent that there is enough reason to warrant a study that will examine these factors. So that we can recommend solutions on how the economy can be improved upon, on how Nigerians can save more and finally know the reasons for excessive spending in Nigeria. This is causal study. A casual study involves an investigation of what causes the other among different variables.
