The Financial Self-Check was developed by Behaving Better, Co., and is shared in partnership with The Black Currency to help individuals better understand their financial decision-making patterns. Behaving Better, Co. focuses on helping individuals recognize the behavioral patterns that shape their financial choices and develop stronger, more intentional habits over time.

The Financial Self-Check is a short, behavior-based assessment designed to help you identify the patterns that influence how you spend, save, and make financial decisions. Created by Chauncey Glenn of Behaving Better, Co., the assessment helps individuals uncover financial blind spots and decision-making tendencies that often go unnoticed.

The assessment is:

• Free
• Quick (takes only a few minutes)
• Designed to create awareness, not judgment

What You'll Learn

Participants receive immediate insight into:

  • Spending triggers that influence when and why you spend.
  • Recurring decision patterns that shape financial outcomes.
  • Hidden behavioral blind spots that affect everyday money choices.

For those who want to go beyond the assessment, tools are available to help you reflect more deeply on the financial decisions you make every day.

One of the most effective ways to build stronger habits is through consistent reflection and intentional decision-making. Therefore, we bring you the Budget Brain Journal.

The Financial Self Check helps you identify patterns in how you think about and use money. The Budget Brain Journal helps you reflect on those patterns and work through them with greater intention.
