Money talk often turns overly serious in a flash. So certified marriage and family therapits and chartered financial consultant Susan Zimmerman came up with her eight Money Rascals to make her discussions with clients about their financial flaws more light-hearted.
Here are the eight Money Rascal personalities she created. I see myself in Casher, Basher and Clasher the most. Zimmerman says Clasher is a common one.
She said she likes to think of these personal traits kind of like different investments in a portfolio - we can rebalance them as we see fit.
Flasher - urge to splurge on flashy image items
Rasher - rash and impulsive frequent shopper
Clasher - spending vs. saving habits clash often
Dasher - dashing everywhere except money management
Basher - bashes materialism, embraces modesty
