Financial Health Beats Out Physical Health for Resolutions

SmartyPig Financial Health

As December gives way to January, our thoughts turn from holiday indulgence to New Year's resolutions. Typically, a list always begins with something weight or fitness related, but this year finances are top of mind. We guess we're not alone.

This year, more than any other, Americans are more focused on their financial health more than their physical health with "saving more" named as the top New Year's resolution for 2010 (cited by 36%) according to a recent survey by Putnam Investments. Old standbys such as "exercise more" (34%) and "lose weight" (34%) trail closely behind. All in all, people know 2010 is finally the year to finally get their act together. Not because, as in years past, they wanted to, but because they simply have to. To make ends meet. To dig out from under their debt. To get away from plastic once and for all. To simply start over or start off right.

We're behind you 100%, and we're very interested in your resolutions. What are you hoping to accomplish in 2010, and how can SmartyPig help you get there? We'd love to know what's on your mind.

Thanks, Team SmartyPig
