"Data shows that children in Europe are spending on average €39 per month on in-game purchases."
What? Given how many that spend 0, there has to be alot of abused children.
- skrebbel 2y agoYeah that data seems super cooked, right? My kids have 1 or 2 classmates who are allowed to do in-game purchases and that's like a few euros here and there, like after they got some birthday money.
- rightbyte 2y agoCertainly well into 'this can't be right' territory. Are in game purchases used for money loundering? Like, if you own half the stock in a company you can get a pretty good money cleaning rate.

- progval 2y ago> Data shows that children in Europe are spending on average €39 per month on in-game purchases. The source they give for this is: https://www.videogameseurope.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/V https://www.videogameseurope.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/V... , which says this number is actually: > Average spent per month (amongst all parents of children who spend in-game items) According to the same source, 18% spend, 76% don't, and 7% are unknown. So excluding the unknowns, that's an average of 7.5€ per month.
