Men are more likely than women to spend more time planning vacations than their finances

Foster City, CA – July 31, 2019 – MyBankTracker.com, a financial comparison site, conducted a survey to compare how much time people spend planning a vacation versus planning their finances.

  2. 1 in 5 Americans (20%) spends more time planning vacations vs. managing their money
  3. Of the 11.2% of people that reported “spending more than 5X planning their vacation than planning their finances,” nearly 60% were men
