Give yourself 1 point for every time you said yes from question 1-32 and find your level below. After seeing your level, where you are now monetarily, continue with the rest of the statements and add another point for each one you answer yes. Use the levels below again, this time with all points, and find out where you are in your worth.
0-4 living in poverty
5-9 paycheck to paycheck
10-19 moderate wealth -------------> us monetarily
20-29 high wealth
30+ tremendous wealth --------------> my worth
