What’s your total score?

0-50: Cautious

51-149: Analyst

150-200: Optimist

Optimist: You seek growth because you sincerely believe everything will turn out well in the long run. Since you believe you can be successful, you are more likely to try new/challenging endeavours. When negative things occur such as significant fluctuations and or policy changes over the short-term, you can withstand it by knowing that brighter days are on the way.

Analyst: You seek capital appreciation and some growth in the investments you do, and you wish those investments can withstand moderate “predictable” fluctuations.

Cautious: You want to minimize fluctuations as you respond strongly to ups and downs in the market and your life. You analyze the “what ifs” and you are concerned about continuity, sustainability and risk. After all, no one knows for sure what the future holds.
