Re: New blog article: What Are the Four Money Personality Types

Those four money personalities seem pretty extreme.  I honestly don't think I fit any one of the 22 bullets under the four categories.  

Everyday 5% CB:
Chase prime Visa // citi CUSTOM CASH “A” // citi CUSTOM CASH “B” // citi CUSTOM CASH “C” // citi ThankYou (5% gas, lucrative spending offers) // mylowe’s Rewards // Target circle card

Rotating 5% CB:
Chase “OG” freedom Visa // DISCOVER it Cash Back // nusenda CU Platinum Cash Rewards

Everyday 4% CB:
US Bank Smartly (v1.0)

Everyday 3% / 2.2% CB:
AOD FCU Visa Signature (3%, sockdrawered) // upgrade Cash Rewards Elite (2.2%, sockdrawered)

Welcome Offer / credits only:
NFCU FLAGSHIP REWARDS (elevated Welcome Offer, annual prime credit, sockdrawered)

Hotel card:
Chase IHG ONE REWARDS PREMIER (elevated Welcome Offer, 1 free night/yr)

On my radar:
Langely FCU Signature Cash Back (5% CB monthly selectable cat) // Safe CU Cash Back+ (Quarterly rotating 5% CB cats plus bonus cats) // upgrade MyFive Cash Rewards (5% CB monthly selectable cat) // US Bank Kroger (and family) World Elite Master Card(s) (5% CB Mobile Wallet)

The article indeed is a must read. I am in multiple categories.  

Thank you for the wealth of knowledge I have learned from these forums. I am logging off as of November 9, 2022. I wish everyone great success.

Like the encouragement to reframe... perspectives on money. My relationship with money got so bad that I point blank started telling family/friends that I NEED to have a healthy relationship with money but I don't know how. Have very much felt this. Reframing.. is the answer I think, hopefuly! Great article.

Every one of those categories seems to describe an unhealthy relationship with finances and money. I would venture a guess that most of us would say we fall somewhere in the middle. I know I wouldn't describe myself as having any of those categories as a "prevailing money script" and while being self-aware is great, to me the extremes presented are very off-putting.

The operative word is prevailing. Hopefully none of us fit entirely into one of those four personalities, but I would imagine most of us exhibit one of the four traits more than the other three. I certainly do.
