Have you tried googling it?

Something like "online sales stats" might do it.

My take off the top of my head is that the baby boomers will be spending more money online than any other age group.. For two main reasons. one 3rd just my thought from looking at history..

#1 there are alot of them...

#2 They are coming into money left to them by the passing of their parents...

#3 It was the 60's generation...Also the lazyest generation are nation has ever known till the nintys hit... but the nintys gen has no money yet... lol

I agree with that.

I am going for the older, well-financed types, myself.

This has some good info about online shopping habits, but doesn't break it down into age groups....... personally, I think the 20-40 yr. old adults are the most likely to buy online.

They don't buy that much, they already have all they want or need.

That is what I mean they dont need!!!!! But they will buy what they want...

now lets think of what they want ..Rolling stones gathers no moss...

be like a free bird and follow that stairway to heaven..Nothing like a tv that looks like and takes up as much space as a picture...

Ever hear wieght loss leads to longer life???

the list of ideas and products the baby boomers want are huge...

Here is one do your own research on this but it is unreal... Sta-Max

I am thinking of corporations... older and well-financed might just fit.
