ks. selitys
Miten olisi jotain tähän suuntaan:
"Money spent on clothes means less money to spend on other things."
tai
"Money spent on clothes leaves less to spend on other things."
(Jotain tuollaista ainakin itse laittaisin...)

is money not spent on other goods and services
Tällä löytyy jopa muutama osuma Googlesta ja se ainakin kuulostaa asialliselta. Toinen vaihtoehto voisi olla "is money not spent for other purposes".

can't be spent on other needs
"needs" on melko neutraali ja kattava
