Determining your Scores Your scores will help you identify your money personality profile. The higher the number for each profile, the more this tendency may motivate your money behavior. It’s okay to be high in several profile areas. It just shows that your financial decisions are based on a variety of motivators or beliefs. 

FL10.1 Explore how value systems, social factors, personal experiences and cultural backgrounds can influence financial decision making.  Whether we realize it or not, we use money everyday! However, we’re not always aware of how we use our money or why we make the financial decisions we do. People decide how to use their money based on their personal values, or what they judge to be important in their lives. Take some time now to identify what your students value!  Students can discuss their personal financial decision-making process, identify their money personality based on personal behavior and choices and analyze financial decisions and the influence of personal/external factors.

The following resource from the Sask DLC Financial Literacy 10 course contains: a viewing guide for videos on various cultural perspectives on financial decisions, an article and information to help the students begin to write their own plans, and the "Money Story" Assignment

Students will be able to reflect on a variety of personal values and how these values can influence their financial decisions. Students can also use the "MOVE" activity to explore thier own beliefs and alignments with certain "money value statements". This activity can also demonstrate how values differ from person to person.
