So, what money personality describes you best?
Most of us have money personalities that combine multiple "types."
Whatever yours is, remember there are no "good" or "bad" types. They're all just different. Zeroing in on your types is how you get to know your natural skills and Achilles heels when it comes to finances. That's the only way you can really start to figure out how to improve your financial wellbeing, make better financial choices, and give yourself an even better financial outlook.
