Quiz

This financial literacy quiz is designed to identify where you are along the continuum ranging from 1 to 10. Beginners would be those who answered 1, 2 or 3 with a yes. Intermediates would fall between 4 and 7. Advanced would be those who could answer yes to 8 or more of the questions.

Once you identify your initial starting point, work down the path of becoming a financial pro! P.S. If you have an answer that ends with a “sort of” or “sometimes,” go ahead and place those responses in the NO category. Only answer yes when you clearly understand and can explain the question.
