#MoneyTalks: 2 in 5 people putting off marriage due to debt
According to a new study, more and more people are getting
married later due to fears of financial strain.
According to a new study by Laurel Road, young couples are delaying getting married due to the debts they have.
A total of 2,000 young adults were surveyed and 37% said they are putting off their wedding plans until they wipe out debt that they currently have.
84% of those surveyed admitted they’ve even considered pulling back on romantic relationships because they’ve wanted to become debt free before committing to someone.
