Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone is having a happy holiday season.  No posts about finance today, just something funny I wanted to share:

Why Do People Get Married?

52%: “We’re in love”
23%: To get pushy parents off our backs
15%: So they won’t go to hell for having sex
8%: Various (financial, security, lonely, hooked on multilayered cake)
2%: Want to find out their blood type
