There’s a lot of INDULGING over the holiday season. So not surprisingly, the #1 New Year’s resolution in 2025 is expected to be a DIET . . . for your WALLET.
Americans are expected to spend more than $1,000 on gifts over the holidays, which isn’t just generous, it’s a new record. And if you’re not flush with cash right now, you may be spending more than you should.
A new poll asked people what they planned to “resolve to start doing in 2025” . . . and the top response was: Saving more money.
“Improving their physical health” was the second most common resolution, followed by: Exercising more . . . being happy . . . eating healthier . . . losing weight . . . improving their mental health . . . learning something new . . . reading more . . . and improving relationships with family and friends.
Other less common responses include: “Focusing on spiritual matters” . . . traveling . . . quitting a bad habit . . . getting a new job . . . and moving.
Overall, 31% of Americans plan to make a New Year’s resolution this year . . . including 58% of Gen Z’ers. On the flips-side, only 14% of Boomers will bother with it.
And of the people who WILL make a resolution, 40% say it’s “likely” that it will stick. 50% say they’re “somewhat likely” to keep their resolution.
5% are already saying their New Year’s resolution is “not very likely” to stick . . . and 2% say they’re totally doomed from the start.
