MintLife, a website dedicated to money and everything that comes with it, has released a fun article detailing the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types and how the types typically spend money. In this way, the article feels a lot like something astrology signs-related, which adds an extra layer of fun to it.
There is no coincidence that the personality types may also show how one spends their money. After all, the Myers-Briggs types reflect aspects of the self such as introversion vs. extroversion, which in itself can show how one spends their money. If you are more extroverted, you probably go out and spend more money, for example.
MintLife’s guide breaks down each of the sixteen types with specific details while also grouping them together into four groups of four:
- Dedicated stewards: practical and self-motivated workers who seek security and safety.
- Wealth builders: easily inspired and value experiences over maintaining the status-quo.
- Wise analysts: driven by thinking and lead with intellect while seeking to improve their situation.
- Bold explorers: quick and flexible thinkers who enjoy experimenting with their many passions.
What’s more, they have also shown what percent of people typically fit into each personality type. Leading these are ISTJ, ISFJ, and ESTJ, with each containing 13% of people. On the opposite end of the scale, we have INFJ with 1% of people and INTJ and ENFJ with 2% of people.
