Grey pound

The grey pound is a term used to refer to the spending power of older people. Older people often have more money than younger people, and this money can be used to buy different products and services, making them an important market for businesses. Older people often have different needs and preferences than younger people, so companies have to work hard to appeal to them and market their products and services in ways that are attractive to the grey pound.
