THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PERSONALITIES WHEN IT COMES TO MONEY

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PERSONALITIES WHEN IT COMES TO MONEY

The compulsive moneymaker

If you want to know a compulsive moneymaker, look for individuals with the belief that more money offers happiness. They are the people who feel great when others recognize their financial achievements. Again, almost all their effort goes on making money. But they may not realize how dangerous it can be when looking to achieve financial freedom. I always tell my clients to learn that life has more meaningful things than money.

The compulsive saver

A compulsive saver possibly knows all economic survival hacks, including shops with quality but cheap products or more affordable services in town. You will find people coming to them in search for the cheapest connection to getting different things. Such individuals believe that the only way to stay safe is saving money. They may keep money, even when there is no goal to it. But I usually advise people to spend in moderation because there may be no point in working hard to earn and not finding happiness in your money, especially ones who skip recreation activities or hobbies in the name of saving.

Nutritionist, Cornell University, MS

I believe that nutrition science is a wonderful helper both for the preventive improvement of health and adjunctive therapy in treatment. My goal is to help people improve their health and well-being without torturing themselves with unnecessary dietary restrictions. I am a supporter of a healthy lifestyle – I play sports, cycle, and swim in the lake all year round. With my work, I have been featured in Vice, Country Living, Harrods magazine, Daily Telegraph, Grazia, Women's Health, and other media outlets.
