What is Your "Money Type"?

Next on my reading list is a book we just received a few days ago entitled “Master Your Money Type: Using Your Financial Personality to Create a Life of Wealth and Freedom” by Jordan E. Goodman. Being a financial consultant, Goodman has encountered all sorts of financial problems and the way people deal with their finances. His work experience showed him that people have “financial personalities” and a person could be a:

• “Striver” – about acquiring, achieving, and letting others know how much you have
• “Ostritch” – baffled, intimidated, or embarrassed by money
• “Debt Desperadoes” – always coming up short
• “Coasters” – most financially stable
• “High rollers” – money is about the grand gesture infused with bravado and a belief in the long shot
• “Squirrels” – motivated by a fear of loss

The book aims to explain your dominant financial personality type. Warner Books (the publisher) allowed us to use excerpts of the book and you can read Chapter 1 in our PowerHomeBiz Home Business Bookstore
