New Year's Resolutions by the numbers
It's that time of year again when people make all sorts of resolutions in an effort to make the new year better than the last.
The top three resolutions are to lose weight, to get more organized, and the spend less while saving more money.
Our friends at the Statistic Brain Research Institute looked into the resolution numbers.
- Percent of Americans who usually make New Year's Resolutions: 45%
- Percent of Americans who infrequently make New Year's Resolutions: 17%
- Percent of Americans who absolutely never make New Year's Resolutions: 38%
- Percent of people who are successful in achieving their resolution: 8%
- Percent who have infrequent success: 49%
- Percent who never succeed and fail on their resolution each year: 24%
But whether or not you make (or keep) your resolutions, we wish you a safe and happy new year.
