We all would like to increase our financial strength. That means having the freedom to do, to move in the direction that you wish. A key component of this is having awareness of what's around you- your resources, your friends and family, society, and laws. Another component is having an awareness of how you make financial decisions. This Quiz seeks to give you a greater understanding of your decision-making personality so that you can then begin to plan and take action!
