Spending Trigger Quiz & Workbook – Why You Keep Buying Stuff – Interactive Self-Assessment
You have done it again, and you're not entirely sure why. The package arrives, the want has already thinned into puzzlement, and some quiet part of you knew you didn't really need this even as you bought it. It feels like a willpower problem — but look closely at your own unplanned purchases and a pattern surfaces almost at once. Something specific is happening just before you buy.
This interactive quiz and workbook gives that something a name. Twenty ordinary spending moments score all five trigger types — Soother, Matcher, Filler, Rewarder, Becomer. Your scores tally as you answer, your dominant trigger highlights itself, and a chart draws your spread. Then the matching action plan tells you what the spending was actually doing — and what to put in its place.

Most workbooks ask you to write. This one asks the right questions, then shows you the pattern across all your answers — instantly.
Auto-scoring removes guesswork
Tally your answers, surface your dominant pattern, see exactly where you fall on the scale — without doing math, without flipping back through pages.
Your answers compound
A reflection in section 3 fills the snapshot in section 7. The result page builds itself as you go. You get the whole picture, not five disconnected pages.
