vox-popPRcareers conducted a unique survey among 37 PROs to discover their personal finance attitude within the prism of their career.

As a salary is a by-product of a career, our survey sought to discover if there were any trends that PROs had with personal finance.

Our first result is fascinating: when asked if they were spenders or savers, 78.4 per cent said they were spenders.

Nearly one third of the respondents said they were savers (29.7 per cent).
