Abstract

We have chosen to investigate the correlation between an individual’s marital status and health on their financial well-being. Our analysis utilizes data gathered from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s report done on 59 adult consumers and 30 financial practitioners. The results indicate that an individual who is in good health and married has a higher financial well-being score than an individual who is in poor health and unmarried.
