What Is Your Money IQ?

Updated: May 5, 2021


We all know what an IQ is - our intelligence quotient. Our IQ is a number that reflects our intelligence, ranging from a deficit to genius levels. Similar to an IQ, our EQ - or emotional quotient - measures our range of emotional genius. Your money IQ measures your knowledge about money, how it works, and how it is managed.


Your IQ, EQ, and money IQ don’t have to be static. They can move from barely there to off the charts. Assessing what you know about money can make a way to learn more or fill in any blanks that keep you from being the genius you were meant to be.


How do you rate your money IQ? Where do you begin? Ask yourself these questions to get started:


Q- On a scale of 1-10, how much do you know about money?

Q- Do you understand the general principles about compound interest, investments, and other ways to make your money work for you?

Q- As time has gone by, has your wealth increased, stayed the same, or decreased?
