A recent Money-stress Tracker survey by DebtBusters, a leading debt counselling company, has revealed that women are more stressed about their finances, home and work life, and health, than men. Women are 30% more likely to be concerned about their health as a result of financial stress, and 20% more anxious about paying their debt each month.
