"The Money Quiz is where every coaching journey begins. It's not about right or wrong answers — it's about honesty. Each trait is a mirror. Some will make you smile. Others might make you wince. That's the point. The discomfort is where the growth lives."

The Eight Money Archetypes
Ognuno porta in sé tutti e otto gli archetipi. La domanda non è quale sia il suo, ma quanto ciascuno influenzi il suo comportamento.
Eroina
L'alto performer. Gli Hero incanalano determinazione e coraggio nella propria vita finanziaria. Al meglio di sé, ispirano gli altri e costruiscono ricchezza attraverso pura forza di volontà. Senza controllo, quella spinta diventa estenuante.
Artista
The creative soul. Artists see money as a tool for self-expression and experience. They value beauty, meaning, and authenticity over accumulation. The challenge is grounding vision in practical reality.
Sovrana
The organiser. Rulers bring structure, systems, and control to their finances. A healthy Ruler keeps the books balanced. An overactive Ruler becomes rigid and controlling.
Innocente
The trusting optimist. Innocents believe things will work out and trust others to handle the details. This openness is lovely — but without financial literacy, it leaves them vulnerable.
Indipendente
The risk-taker. Mavericks are bold, unconventional, and comfortable with uncertainty. They can spot opportunities others miss. The danger is confusing recklessness with courage.
Vittima
The burdened. Victims feel that external circumstances control their financial life. This is not weakness — it is often the result of real hardship. The coaching work is reclaiming agency.
Martire
The giver. Martyrs put everyone else first. Their generosity is genuine and beautiful — but when it comes at the cost of their own financial wellbeing, resentment builds beneath the surface.
Maga
L'alchimista. I Magician trasformano le idee in abbondanza. Vedono opportunità ovunque e hanno la risorse per concretizzarle. È l'archetipo della maestria finanziaria.

A few things people ask before they begin — and what to expect after.
Q.01 Che cos'è il Traditional Money Quiz?
The Traditional Money Quiz is Ilana's original archetype assessment, developed over years of coaching practice. It maps your responses to eight money archetypes — Hero, Artist, Ruler, Innocent, Maverick, Victim, Martyr, and Magician — revealing the unconscious patterns that shape your financial behaviour. You can take it in three lengths (24, 56, or 112 traits) and choose between Likert or Yes/No responses.
Q.02 Quick, Standard, or Full — which should I take?
All three use the same scoring engine, so all three are clinically sound. Quick (24 traits, ~3 min) is a fast taste — useful if you're curious or short on time. Standard (56 traits, ~8 min) is the sweet spot — balanced precision across all eight archetypes. Full (112 traits, ~15 min) is the complete clinical assessment Ilana uses in coaching, with the tightest score bands. If you intend to discuss the results with Ilana, take the Full.
Q.03 Likert or Yes/No — which response format?
Likert (Not at all / A little / Somewhat / Mostly / Completely) gives nuance and is the default. Yes/No is faster and useful if shades of grey feel paralysing — but you lose some precision in the final scores. Most people find Likert helps them be more honest with themselves.
Q.04 In cosa si distingue da The Deal?
The Deal is a game-show experience designed for engagement and fun — great for couples, parties, or a first encounter with the archetype framework. The Traditional Money Quiz is the clinical foundation Ilana uses with coaching clients. Both share the same eight-archetype scoring engine, so a Magician here is the same Magician there.
Q.05 Cosa significano i punteggi?
Each archetype has an ideal range. Scoring above or below that range does not mean "good" or "bad" — it means that archetype is influencing your behaviour more or less than is optimal. The colour bands read: green healthy, amber worth watching, red deserves attention, critical where coaching would be transformative. Everyone carries all eight patterns; the question is which ones are running the show.
Q.06 What happens after I finish?
Three things. You see your live archetype profile on a radar chart with severity bands per archetype. You receive a personalised written reading that interprets your specific combination — not a generic per-archetype description. And you have the option to book a free 30-minute discovery call with Ilana, who reviews your profile beforehand so the conversation starts where it matters.
Q.07 Is my data stored? Can I retake it?
Your in-progress answers are saved in your browser (localStorage) so you can resume if you close the page. When you finish, your name, email, and final scores are stored securely so Ilana can personalise your coaching — and emailed to you for your own records. You can start a fresh quiz at any time; previous results stay on file unless you ask Ilana to remove them.
