Money is made for play. Throwing caution to the wind, you relish in the moments money can provide you, and aren’t afraid to take risks as a result. You enjoy the finer things in life, and love to share them with those around you.
Work hard, spend hard. You like to have fun with your money. Ready to risk it for the benefit of yourself, and those around you.
You are the first to share the fruits of your success. Hang around you long enough, and your ‘philanthropy’ might rub off on others.
For you more is more. You have an acquired taste for all the good things life has to offer.
An extrovert financially and socially, as the Socialite you are the spender of the group. You don’t place too much importance on your money which makes you more liberal in your financial decisions. You like to indulge and equally enjoy being generous with others. You are spontaneous and a risk taker, dancing through life with a buy now, think later mindset which can sometimes bring some anxiety along with it. Remember to balance your desire for materialistic pleasures with responsible financial planning. Let your generosity and social nature shine as you keep the long-term implications of your financial choices in mind.
Build your resilience with a starter emergency fund, or a more robust safety net that will get you through it all.
Get ready to splurge by setting money aside. It makes it so much easier when it’s all part of the plan.
You’re worth it after all… so before you spray cash, make sure you get paid and your money’s flowing where you want it.
