And so mistrustful are they of their husbands abilities with money, that only one in five is willing to take financial advice from them, according to the study.
根據(jù)這篇調(diào)查報告的說法,這些受訪女性很不信任自己丈夫的理財能力,她們中僅五分之一的人愿意聽取丈夫提出的理財建議。
Their menfolk are not the only ones women dont trust, however. Some 90 percent of those surveyed wouldnt rely on their bank to help them out of financial trouble either. And 87 percent dont believe their local politician would be any use.
當(dāng)然,她們懷疑的還不止自己的男人。有90%的受訪者稱自己不會依靠銀行來解決家庭財務(wù)危機(jī),87%的人不相信當(dāng)?shù)毓賳T會任何作為。
Instead of turning to others, women are much more likely to try to solve their own financial problems. Almost a third said they prefer to use financial websites to get the advice they seek - and only 2 percent believe a bank would provide help.
Caroline Bloor, of Good Housekeeping magazine, which conducted the survey, said: This is tremendously empowering. It puts women in a very strong position when it comes to making life-changing decisions. Women are fast learners when it comes to personal finance. They do their research, theyre more cautious and theyre not too proud to speak up when they dont understand financial jargon or need advice.
她們習(xí)慣自己解決財務(wù)上的問題,而不是向他人尋求幫助。差不多有三分之一的受訪者稱自己寧愿瀏覽財經(jīng)網(wǎng)站尋求財務(wù)建議,而僅有2%的人覺得銀行能幫上忙。
《好管家》雜志的卡洛琳 布魯爾是這項(xiàng)調(diào)查的發(fā)起人,她說:理財能力賦予女性很多權(quán)利,良好的理財能力使女性在決定家里重大事情的時候擁有充分的話語權(quán)。她們接受個人理財方面的知識速度很快,樂于鉆研、細(xì)致謹(jǐn)慎在遇到不熟悉的理財術(shù)語或需要幫助的時候,也會虛心講出來。
It may seem like a reversal of the traditional roles for women to look after the finances - but its not the only one.
掌握家庭財政大權(quán)可能并不屬于傳統(tǒng)社會賦予女性的權(quán)利但當(dāng)今社會女性獲得的權(quán)利又何止這些!
This week, a separate survey found half of all women think their man is the better cook.
