Norwegians’ fear of their own finances is declining, according to a new survey from Nettavisen. 6 out of 10 worry little.

The survey operates on a temperature scale from 0 to 100, showing a decline in people’s fears from 48 last week to 46 this week.

A total of 62.6 percent now state that they are totally or relatively carefree of their own finances.

“It is absolutely incredible when you see what has really been at stake,” says Bernt Aardal, professor of political science at the University of Oslo, to Nettavisen.

In the various counties, people in Trøndelag and Møre og Romsdal are the least worried.
