each column is a ranking of expense categories for a generation in terms of money spent per year (in recent years NOT when the generations were of equivalent age).
the rows represent the ranking number but it is very confusing because the labels on the rows are for silent generation only and not the other generations and the lines would lead you to intuitively think they are changes in dollar amounts but are actually changes in ranking.
I had a terrible moment where I wondered if I had middle-aged senility. I thought I was looking at a chart other people could understand but for me it was numerical mass of confusion.
GraphTech is a Canadian aftermarket guitar hardware manufacturer who mostly specializes in Teflon-impregnated synthetic bone used for nuts and saddles. They also make some amazing -- albeit overpriced -- tuning machines that use gear ratios matched to specific string gauges, so that you have a consistent number of turns for each tuning peg. This makes tuning super heavy gauge strings (e.g., a 65 gauge low "E" string [that is downtuned to C or C#] or the low B string on a 7-string, etc.) much less twitchy because of the much shorter gear ratio for those strings (e.g., 39:1 instead of the usual 18:1 or 16:1). It's pretty helpful for keeping things in tune when you do multiple takes or overdubs.
On-topic, the infographic in the OP is the result of the unholy union of "graphic design is my passion" and data visualization nerds not being bullied enough.
This is really unreadable

Damn I misread it. That would have been really interesting tho. Depressing too probably
Thank god I'm not alone.

Nah, it's just a poorly designed/labeled chart
GraphTech was a mistake.
I have no idea what the bizarro world inforgraphics are called so I made up a term.

That's neat.
