Budget Keepers
Primary Motivation: Being Wise
As a Budget Keeper, you have a high sense of responsibility. You want to manage money wisely and actually enjoy budgeting and planning. You value generosity, but approach your giving carefully often asking questions like, “What can I afford to give?” Once you determine that number, you will do your best to stick with it. When an unforeseen expense comes up such as a home or auto repair, you may tighten the reigns on your generosity for a while, but will get back on track once your budget becomes predictable again. You are generally comfortable talking about money. You value generosity from a holistic approach also budgeting your time to serve and bless people.
