MARKETWATCH – May 3 – ~40% of adults say knowing someone's credit score would affect their willingness to date that person, according to a survey by personal finance website Bankrate.com. It's a more important factor for women (43%) than men (32%) and college graduates (47%) than those with just a high school education (29%).

This data is flawed. You can’t survey 1000 people and then say 40% of Americans want to know a credit score before dating. Really? 1000 people? I might consider this if the survey queried 500,000 people but 1000 people? Seriously?

Depends if the sample was drawn correctly as a representative sample. If so, 1000 is a decent sample.
