Today represents a huge milestone for tens of thousands of medical students about to embark on the next stage of their medical careers: Match Day. If you’re a resident, we know you’ve been anxiously counting down the days. And if you’re friends with a 4th year medical or dental school student, we know you’ve been dealing with their anxiety. And hopefully for both of you, today is a huge relief.

We here at SoFi wish a hearty congratulations to all soon-to-be residents who have spent many sleepless nights in the library, crisscrossed the country interviewing, and are readying yourselves to become our next generation of health-care providers.

They say falling in love leads to happily ever after. But when you throw money in the mix, that ending can get complicated.

Couples frequently have issues around finances, whether it’s about budgeting, debt, spending, or simply aligning on future goals. But how they deal with those issues can be a different story. While some fight and get it all out in the open, our recent survey on the topic suggests that plenty of couples prefer to keep their money troubles under wraps—including from their partner.

After surveying over 3,300 couples across the U.S. (ages 18-45), the SoFi team dug into the details of financial infidelity, and discovered which kinds of money-related experiences can cause even the most communicative of partners to keep their other half in the dark. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, here are a few eye-openers around money, love, and pure deception.

We here at SoFi couldn’t agree more—which is why we’re turning some HQ Trivia losers into winners this week. SoFi is on a mission to help people reach their financial goals, faster. To get you motivated in 2018, we’re giving up to 200 HQ losers a second chance of winning every day for five days starting on February 12th.

Here’s what you could win from SoFi: $25 in a SoFi Invest account, and our So Money card game.

You’re going to watch roughly 45 commercials during the big game. So why not use this time to tackle another big thing in your life–student debt?

Applying online is fast, easy, and won’t affect your credit score. Even better: anyone who refinances their student loans with SoFi today will get to choose a gift from some of our favorite things from the commercials you missed—whether it’s an Amazon Echo or a month’s supply of Bud Light.
