Your result for The (Federal Reserve's) Financial Literacy Test...

Personal Finance Expert

You answered 31/31 correctly.

You're definitely part of the solution. Thank you, on behalf of your fellow citizens, for managing your money responsibly. But keep learning! As you probably already know, financial knowledge pays.

You are probably capable of bringing something extremely important to your relationships: financial stability. Most relationship problems arise out of differences over money. You have the capacity to make excellent financial decisions as long as you use your head, and you are probably capable of talking intelligently with your mate about those decisions. Just be patient, and remember that the vast majority of people (very sadly) don't know this stuff.

You might be interested to know that the national average score for American high school seniors in 2008 was 48.3%, down about 4% from last year. I don't have any information about the standard deviation, unfortunately.

Your result for The Which Biblical Villain Are You Test...

King Nebuchadnezzar

You scored 55% Pride, 18% Envy, 100% Ambition, and 50% Deceitfulness!

You are King Nebuchadnezzar, the emperor of Babylon. You are part of a long tradition of Middle Eastern dictators. Like any good dictator, you possess the attributes of pride and ambition in good measure. Your ambitious nature drove you to conquer much of the Middle East, including the kingdom of Israel. You subsequently put the people of Israel into bondage. You also tend to be very direct with your friends and enemies alike. You prefer to tell people exactly what you're going to do and how you're going to do it. Your position in society and your imperial army give you the ability to do this with impunity. Unlike many Middle Eastern despots, you are a very good ruler and you happen to treat your own people quite well. You might be a biblical villain, but I'm sure you'd make a good dictator in the 21st century, if given the chance.

About the only one I was doubtful about was the credit card liability if it was stolen, but I guessed correctly. It was pretty straight forward and obvious --but it assumes just because you know the correct answers, you'll make the right choices and I'm am living proof that that is not so.

And since this is a dating website, let me also throw out that you are probably capable of bringing something extremely important to your relationships: financial stability. Most relationship problems arise out of differences over money. You have the capacity to make excellent financial decisions as long as you use your head, and you are probably capable of talking intelligently with your mate about those decisions.

And also proof that there is no correlation between typos or a willingness to proofread and financial knowledge : )
