Single people may have a better chance of finding love if they have good money management skills.<\/p>\n
Research commissioned by the Money Advice Service – and carried out by YouGov – has found that 59 per cent of people view the ability to budget as an attractive quality.<\/p>\n
Nearly two-thirds (64 per cent) of individuals think money is an influencing factor on a relationship, while 72 per cent would not embark on a relationship if they thought their prospective partner had poor money management skills.<\/p>\n
This highlights how important it is for people to be savvy in their financial dealings if they want to find love.<\/p>\n
In terms of gender differences, 71 per cent of women think financial acumen is important in a relationship, while only 55 per cent of males share this opinion.<\/p>\n
People in the east of England (82 per cent) were the least likely to start a relationship with members of the opposite sex who are not savvy with their finances.<\/p>\n
