Credit Cards - Love can't buy you money - 22/02/2008

 
 
  If you're single take heart in the fact that new research reveals single Brits are financially better off than those in a relationship – to the tune of £3.7 billion.

The study showed that the average single Brit is on average £255.42 per month better off than their coupling counterparts.

A single Brit spends £281 a month on rent and bills, compared with the £500 paid out by someone in a relationship – a saving of £2,600 per year on rent alone.

David Kuo at Fool.co.uk said: "Money can't buy you love, but it can help to ease the burden as pay day gets further away and the bills start rolling in.

"We're not suggesting that money will ever replace the warm glow we feel from our loved ones, but if you can’t be with the one you love, then learn to love your wallet!"

"By investing a little time in our finances, we can ensure that we're financially sound for the moment when we do meet 'the one', so that the financial fairytale has a happy ending."
