I’m A Pooh, How About You?

Hey, sorry for not writing anything for a while, but I’ve been kinda busy with my new job. I’m happy to say that things are going well so far…. aside from some lingering issues about what to do with my 401(k), but that’s another post.

While I try to find time to squeeze that post out, I thought I’d share something I read today that had an interesting take on personal finance personality types. Joe at Christian Personal Finance asks the whimsical question: Are You a Tigger, an Eeyore, or a Pooh?

It’s based on A. A. Milne’s classic children’s books featuring Winnie the Pooh and his friends. Who doesn’t like Winnie the Pooh, and personal finance, right?

Joe briefly outlines the good points and the bad points of each of the characters (Tigger, Eeyore and Pooh) as well as how they relate to personal finance.

It’s a light hearted post, but it’s also a fun way to get you thinking about how your personality type impacts your approach to personal finance.

For my part, I figure I’m most like Winnie the Pooh. He’s the happy medium, if you will, between the extremes represented by Eeyore and Tigger. I imagine most people would prefer to be Pooh, given the choices, but I really can’t say I have many qualities of the others… but I guess that would be like admitting a character flaw, and who wants to do that?

I encourage you to check out the complete post here.
