PYMNTS and Reality Check Study: A Fact-Checked Analysis

According to a new study conducted by PYMNTS and Reality Check, half of employed consumers have supplemental income sources in addition to their paychecks. The study suggests that having a second income can greatly impact financial stability and could potentially lead to a collective $52 billion in cash payments each month. However, it is important to understand the implications of having a second income source and to make sure that it is reliable and financially beneficial. While some supplemental income sources may provide short-term relief, they may also lead to long-term financial instability.

A new study conducted by PYMNTS and Reality Check has revealed that half of employed consumers have supplemental income sources in addition to their paychecks.

This research, which is the 20th edition of the Paycheck-to-Paycheck series, suggests that having a second income can greatly impact financial stability and can often mean the difference between having difficulty and living paycheck to paycheck.

Moreover, the study also suggests that these additional income sources could lead to a collective $52 billion in cash payments each month.

However, DBunk discovered that the article does not provide any evidence to back up this claim.

According to the findings, the article misleadingly implies that all supplemental income sources are reliable and financially beneficial, when in fact some of these sources, such as receiving profits from selling used items, may only provide short-term relief and could potentially lead to long-term financial instability.
