The Maker
The Spender
The Giver
The Saver
Savers excel at well, saving money. As a Saver, you are meticulous about details and always believe in thorough research. Your decision-making is very practical, a result of carefully weighing the pros and cons. You dislike making hasty, impulsive decisions.
You can be slow to trust others’ conclusions, concerned that they may not have conducted the same level of due diligence as you.
Your pragmatic nature leads you to prioritise essential purchases only. This naturally results in lower spending and higher savings. You are meticulous about tracking your expenses and keeping detailed records. You want a clear understanding of where every ringgit goes.
When investing, you are generally risk-averse and require more time to make decisions compared to other personality types. While this thoroughness can prevent impulsive decisions, it can also lead to missed opportunities. In extreme cases, the combination of risk-aversion and extensive research can result in Savers keeping all their money in their bank accounts, leading to the erosion of value due to inflation.
Strike a balance between deploying your money for investments and holding for emergencies.
Generally, hold a maximum 1-year of living expenses as your emergency fund.
Be mindful of how much liquid cash you hold. Inflation can reduce your hard-earned spending power.
Ease yourself into investing. Uncertainty will always exist, so let yourself get used to it.
There is no 100% information, so you will sometimes need to take a leap of faith.
Vet and evaluate a financial professional to assist you. Once you know that they are competent and appropriately qualified, trust them (within reason!).
