Finances are one of the biggest reasons relationship fails, yet a new study finds that it’s also one of the things we lie about to a new love
A new survey sponsored by SelfLender takes a look at how we handle telling our new boo about our debt and if it’s a deal breaker or now. Spoiler alert: it is. Maybe that’s why we wait about six months to share our financial info with our partner.
Countless surveys show that no matter the income bracket there will be problems between you two if the money situation doesn’t come under control. The survey shows that one in two adults says it’s morally and legally right to disclose your complete financial information and 58-percent would hold off on the wedding if it didn’t happen.
Some other interesting finds from the survey are:
- Being deceptive about finances almost common with three in 10 have lied about their salary
- People hiding their spending habit from their loved one adds up to about 25-percent
- A whopping 14-percent say credit card debt over 10 thousand dollars is a red flag
- Credit card debt is the worst debt according to 35-percent
Come clean and you’ll start a new relationship without the two biggest love crushers their are: lying and little trust in financial savvy.
