Relationship with money
Do you realize that we all have relationship with money? Either it’s a healthy relationship where money does not own you (for a lack of a better description) or an unhealthy one. For fun, I searched for quizzes to determine how I related to money. Here is this short and fun quiz online which can tell you what kind of personality you are when it comes to money. I seem to be a money monk but at the same time some of the qualifications of the others also apply!
This article summed the possible money person you are as can be seen here:
- Spenders
Spenders spend money in hopes that material items will bring happiness or provide pain relief. - Misers
Misers absolutely fear poverty and constantly worry about not having enough money to live. - Haters
Money haters absolutely detest money and what it does to people. - Seekers
Money seekers are the ones who obsess over becoming wealthy
The author then outlines how to work on getting a healthy relationship with money based on what type of person you are. Quite impressive and also an eye-opener for me, as money has always been The Unmentionable Subject.
As 2020 is the year for improvement, I’m going to look through the questions posed there and do some soul searching to get better. Are you with me? Leave your comments below as usual!
