Uno de cada tres adultos americanos admite “infidelidad financiera”

16/6/2014 – One in three adults admitted to “financial infidelity” in a recent National Endowment for Financial Education poll, and 76 percent of those respondents said the deception affected their relationship.

(“It meant nothing!” may be harder to get away with when “it” affects your credit score.)

One of the most fascinating revelations is why couples say they aren’t more forthright about their finances.

Just 16 percent said they lied because they were “embarrassed or fearful about my finances and didn’t want my partner to know.” Another 15 percent said they had never discussed finances with their partner and “feared they would disapprove” of the true picture.

A full 35 percent of respondents replied, “I believe that some aspects of my finances should remain private, even from my partner.”
