spending habits
How you buy
Spending habits are the patterns and tendencies that characterize how someone uses money.
The phrase usually appears when those patterns need examination or correction: She's trying to change her spending habits, His spending habits are out of control.
Financial advisors assess spending habits to identify where money goes and what might be adjusted.
