Student Money Personality

We have put together a short financial quiz.

The questions are based on common day-to-day events, like socializing, spending, borrowing and your views on money in general.

There are no right or wrong answers. Remember, everyone is different. Money is a tool. How you use it will be up to you. But the insights offer an opportunity to understand your financial personality a little better.

Our Three Personality Types

High Roller 

People in this category enjoy money. They view it as something that needs to be used. Savings are for later, like when they secure a real job, with a good income. For now, life is to be enjoyed where possible.

Hunter

People in this category find a degree of balance when it comes to their money. They enjoy having some fun, but also know that they need to plan ahead for lean times also. 

Stealthy Prowler

People in this category have a respect for money. They know that they, or someone else, has to work for it. They understand it is a resource that is not limitless. So they take a more cautious approach. They are open to having some fun and deriving value from money. Yet, they are careful not to waste it.
