Discovering Your Money Personality

Hi, I’m Elisabeth Dawson, founder of COPIA Wealth Management & Insurance Services and COPIA Wealth Management Advisors Inc. Over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how financial success isn’t just about numbers—it’s about behavior. 

Have you ever wondered why you make certain financial decisions? Do you find yourself saving diligently, spending impulsively, or avoiding money conversations altogether?

Understanding your money personality can help you break free from unconscious financial patterns and create a strategy that truly serves your goals.

Why Your Money Personality Matters

Your financial personality shapes the way you approach money—whether you realize it or not. It influences your spending habits, savings patterns, investment choices, and even your emotional relationship with money. By identifying your money type, you can start making more intentional financial choices that align with your long-term aspirations.

The Money Type Quiz: A Tool for Self-Discovery

One of the best ways to uncover your financial tendencies is by taking a Money Type Quiz. This quiz helps you:

  • Identify your money archetype
  • Recognize unconscious financial behaviors
  • Gain insight into why you make certain money decisions
  • Develop strategies for financial transformation

I encourage my clients to take this quiz because self-awareness is the first step toward financial empowerment. Once you know your money type, you can begin shifting any behaviors that may be holding you back from achieving financial security and abundance.

Common Money Archetypes and Their Impact

Common Money Archetypes and Their Impact

The Saver

If you’re a Saver, you feel a sense of security in accumulating wealth. You tend to avoid spending unnecessarily and prioritize financial stability. While this is a great habit, savers can sometimes be overly cautious, missing out on opportunities to grow their wealth through strategic investments.

Transformation Tip:

Consider balancing your saving habits with an investment plan that allows your money to work for you. Partnering with a financial advisor can help you create a plan that grows your wealth while maintaining your sense of security.

The Spender

Spenders love the thrill of making purchases and enjoying their money in the moment. While there’s nothing wrong with enjoying your hard-earned money, spenders often struggle with impulse control, which can lead to financial stress.

Transformation Tip:

Creating a budget that allows for both spending and saving can help you maintain financial stability while still enjoying life. Implementing mindful spending habits can make a world of difference.

The Avoider

Do you procrastinate when it comes to financial matters? Avoiders often feel overwhelmed by finances, leading them to ignore bills, avoid investing, or put off important financial decisions. This can create unnecessary stress and missed opportunities.

Transformation Tip:

Facing your finances head-on can be empowering. Start small—set up automatic payments, schedule regular money check-ins, and work with a financial professional to develop a plan that feels manageable.

The Giver

Givers find joy in helping others, whether it’s family, friends, or charitable causes. While generosity is a beautiful trait, it can sometimes come at the expense of personal financial stability.

Transformation Tip:

Setting financial boundaries is crucial. Prioritize your own financial security first, then create a giving plan that allows you to help others without compromising your own well-being.
