Financial Personality Types

[friar1610]

Is everyone here a FT subscriber or is there another way to get from the story to the quiz without subscribing?

 

[Texas Proud]

Fitbit....


But I disagree with the other stmts they make about why I am this way... I have full control as to other aspects of my life... I stopped reading after that, so I do not know what else they are wrong about...

I'm not an FT subscriber.

I clicked on the pink piggy bank in the image on the left side of the article, and it took me right to the test.

 

[Ready]

Hoarder...no surprise there.

 

[Danmar]

I didn't seem to fit any other of them.

 

[splitwdw]

American here, so these British categories don't apply to me.

 

[Johanson]

Fitbit for me.

 

[Closet_Gamer]

Fitbit Hoarder. Not surprised but also not in need of psychiatric or financial caregivers.

 

[aja8888]

Fitbit

 

[Diver]

Fitbit with Hoarder in 2nd place

 

[Persn]

Hoarder, with Social Value Spender in 2nd place and nothing else close. Not a surprise.

 

[Dreamer]

Hoarder 1st, Fitbit 2nd and Anxious 3rd.

 

[Katsmeow]

Fitbit by a bunch. Mildly Hoarder in 2nd. I was neutral on social value. Less like everything else.

 

[DrRoy]

Mostly Fitbit, a little Hoarder.

 

[donheff]

Fitbit with a touch of hoarder. I don't see the problem that calls for an FA.

 

[NW-Bound]

Fitbit Financier according to the test. I do not see that an FA would be of help to me either.

 

[REWahoo]

Did anyone get a result that didn't suggest using a FA?

Those 6 financial personality types remind me of how astrological personality descriptions are written. All we need now to take this to the next level is to add a time variable.

Hoarders be careful - as April approaches negative vibes all around you.
Fitbiters - remember, in January you will feel the need to update your yearly goals session.

Cash Splashers: Love, or what will very temporarily pass for it, is just around the bend.

 

[Gumby]

My guess is that Fitbitters and hoarders will predominate in this forum, and that is certainly borne out by the responses so far.

 

[frayne]

Hoarder here !

Not so far-fetched.

Financial Astrology

Tellingly, large firms such as J. P. Morgan, refuse to take a stance for or against the practice, though the founder of the bank, John Pierpont Morgan, had a personal astrologer on staff, and he was attributed as saying "Millionaires don't use astrologers, but billionaires do."

 

[calmloki]

inconclusive, but pretty strongly and evenly fitbit and hoarder. All the finance types I read about would benefit from a financial advisor. It said so, so must be so.

 

[braumeister]

Me too. I don't get it.

One of the questions "When it comes to spending money on myself, I do so “because I am worth it”

What does that even mean I have heard people say "Buy it; you deserve it" and such, but I never understood this concept...
