A lot of people
who have
up until now
been spending money
having a good time
now need to be more careful with their money.
Syntax is correct. The sentence means:
Up until now a lot of people had enough money. So they could afford kind of a luxurious lifestyle.
Now times are harder, they earn less money, or things have simply become more expensive, so they have to think twice whether they should buy something.
