The study said that 35 to 50 percent of the elderly would spend time in a nursing home before they died.

Less than 25 percent of their lawyers spent 50 hours or more representing clients who could not pay, it found.

Just 7 percent spent more than half of their available time away from employment.

Another 35 percent spend from 50 to 124 nights on the road each year.

The bad news, however, is that 6 percent spend more than 240 hours.

Among those older teenagers, 8 percent spent more than $200 a week on clothes, he said.

Keep in mind that 90 percent of the population spends less than $1,000 a year on medical care.

And the amount that 80 percent spent was about twice their incomes.

Two years ago, "61 percent of all American college students spent less than $3,000 in tuition and fees."

Ten percent of the children spent more than 16 hours a week on the Internet.
