Abstract

Chinese and Americans have significantly different consumption views; from youth, the Americans have been used to consumption by the loan, but most of the Chinese are accustomed to the consumption by the deposit. The US is the biggest consuming country in the world; China is the greatest country of deposit in the world. Different consumption views will have different influences on economic development and the lifestyles of people. The similarities and differences of consumption views are caused by the bilateral culture; different consumption views can reflect different cultures. It is necessary to study the similarities and differences of Chinese and American culture from the consumption perspective. It will be greatly beneficial to the Chinese and American cultural exchanges.
