Marketing Professionals the least sought after life partners!!!

 Me and my co-blogger had been contemplating for past one week on what should be the topic for our first write up. Being overtly creative we both could not arrive at a consensus on the topic to be chosen. Until i came across a article in one the leading dailies(read TOI).

Apparently there was a survey done by one the leading matrimonial search engine(till this point I only knew of the BIG THREE search engines. Thanks TOI for educating me) . The sample size was 5000 respondents and the methodology adopted was Quantitative research (this is 4 d uninformed who are unaware that survey forms a part of the quantitative methodology). Some interesting facts from the survey are as under:



1.50% women chose finance professionals over software professionals as their preferred life partners

2.  80% of the women are willing to work after marriage

3.
50% of them might call it quits after having a child (not sure if this 50% is from the above 80% or is it independent of the above)

4. Nearly 70% of the women expected their spouses to earn between `50,000 and 1 lakh per month

5.  Almost 20% wanted to marry a man earning more than `1 lakh per month(again not sure if this 20% is from the above 70% or independent) 

6. And this one was the final nail in the coffin ' Marketing Professionals were the least sought after life partners'

Even though the sample size was small I was quite convinced that its is quite representative in nature since the findings are bang on. My mom on reading this article immediately started shouting ' Finance pannu da entna dara sonnen'(which meant I urged you take finance as your major, in my mother tongue)

But I still believe otherwise coz, Bloody we are marketing guys yaar.
