"Two in three Singapore workers save no more than 20 per cent of their monthly pay.
That's according to an online survey conducted by job portal, JobsCentral.
It polled some 2,300 individuals between August and September 2011.
The top three savers are workers from research & development, consulting and business development.
More than half of research & development workers said they save more than 20 per cent of their monthly income.
And the worst savers?
Those who work in events management, public relations and sales.
About one in five from these professions said they save more than 20 per cent of monthly income.
Huang Shao-Ning, deputy CEO of JobsCentral Group, said: "The more exuberant personalities of these three groups of workers, and the requirement of their jobs to leave positive impressions on new people they meet everyday may also translate to higher expenditure on grooming, commuting and entertainment."
Most (44.1%) respondents said they save most of their bonus.
While one in three (33.7%) said they spend their bonus on holidays and shopping.
One in 10 would give most of their bonus to their parents, while 9 per cent would invest the money.
Only 0.5 per cent said they will donate to charity."
