Generate a grid showing the disposable income by the percentages of the population under 15 years old and over 75 years old:

In[3]:=
With[{under15 = ResourceData["Sample Data: Life Cycle Savings"][ All, {"DisposableIncome", "PopulationUnder15"}], over75 = ResourceData["Sample Data: Life Cycle Savings"][ All, {"DisposableIncome", "PopulationOver75"}]}, ListPlot[{Values@Normal[under15], Values@Normal[over75]}, PlotRange -> All, PlotMarkers -> {Automatic, 7}, AxesLabel -> {"Disposable Income ($)", "Population (%)"}, PlotLegends -> {"Under 15", "Over 75"}]]
