The personal finance website WalletHub conducted a nationwide survey of almost 500 people between Dec. 2 and Dec. 6 to ask about the kind of New Year’s resolution they are making. The survey reveals that almost 99 million Americans are vowing to improve their finances, with the No. 1 resolution for men to save money and for women to pay off debt. Those are good goals, according to WalletHub. WalletHub CEO Odysseas Papadimitriou said: But the survey also reveals that less than 50 percent said they would stick to their resolution for the entire year. Papadimitriou said: And, believe it or not, the survey shows that politics even play a role in New Year’s resolutions — conservatives are 2.5 times more likely than leftists to say it is not right to change your resolution over the course of the next 12 months. But they are not in the majority, even if changing one’s resolutions may not help you achieve your goals. A shift in circumstances also could play a role.
