Having more time on our hands can reduce consumption, for example, we can make our food instead of going to the restaurant or take away. We may have more time for the family and thus spend less on nursing homes or kindergartens. This is just my opinion but it can also reduce conspicuous consumption. Remote work makes it less necessary to be in the centre of a city or surroundings. This reduces the consumption used to define social status. For example at the moment the fashion business is in a strong decline. We are already seeing an increase in savings partly due to remote work. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/12/investing/jobs-coronavirus-consumer-spending-debt/index.html https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/12/investing/jobs-coronaviru...
