When I was growing up in Quebec most final exams (other than in English) were multiple choice (or multiple guess, as we knew them) when you wrote a high school-leaving exam. I never liked multiple choice, but I was always fond of fill in the blank tests because it gave you much more leeway to be more creative in your responses.
With this in mind, I give you a simple list of a few fill in the blank questions that effectively can for a Financial Aptitude Test.
If you wish to be part of this test, put your answers in the Comments section below:
- Don’t do stupid things with your money and ____________________.
- The stupidest thing Canadians do with their money is _________________.
- I am going to miss the penny because ______________________.
- Stupid people and their money are __________________.
- If you have $30 cash and you owe $20 to your friend you really have _____________.
I may give out prizes from my backlog of books, but no promises (yes I am being very lazy today, what do you want for a Wednesday!).
1.) Don’t do stupid things with your money and your time (both are valuable).
2.) The stupidest thing Canadians do with their money is throw it away on bank fees.
3.) I am going to miss the penny because kids will grow up not understanding the Office Space ‘fractions-of-a-cent rounding down’ scheme.
4.) Stupid people and their money are worth hanging out with.
5.) If you have $30 cash and you owe $20 to your friend you really have $30 (they’ll forget).
