 Permanent Income Hypothesis - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Permanent Income Hypothesis: The Permanent Income Hypothesis, developed by Milton Friedman, suggests that people base their consumption not on current income but on their expected long-term average income. Temporary income changes have little effect on spending, while changes in expected permanent income significantly influence consumption behavior. See also Income, Inflation, Saving, Consumption.
