If you made a New Year’s Resolution about your financial future, you’re in good company. Almost four in ten adults (37 percent) say they intend to make a financial resolution this year — a six point increase over 2015, according to Fidelity Investments’ New Year Financial Resolutions Study.
Saving more, spending less, paying off debt, developing a long-term goal, making and sticking to a budget, and paying off credit cards rank as the top consumer self-promises. The study also finds that making financial resolutions may indeed improve your financial wellness.
