What's your student money personality?
Ten quick questions on how you really handle your allowance — from the disciplined Ajo Undergraduate to the untraceable Ghost Spender. Be honest, no lecturer is watching.
The 8 student money types
Every student handles the allowance differently. These are the eight types — which one are you?
The Allowee Juggler
You stretch the monthly allowance like a maths problem — food, transport, data, small fun, all balanced.
The Sapa Scholar
Broke by mid-month, surviving on indomie, garri and the kindness of roommates. Resilience is your major.
The Campus Hustler
Allowance is small money — thrift, mini-importation, a small skill. You always have a plan to make more.
The Soft-Life Student
Soft life on a student budget, and somehow it adds up. Nice things, clean fits, still reaches month-end.
The Borrow-Borrow
“Send me 2k, I’ll pay you back” is your anthem. Always a little short, always owing someone.
The Ajo Undergraduate
Discipline is your middle name, even on allowance. Class ajo, small savings, buying in bulk. You lend, not borrow.
The Detty Weekender
Allowance vanishes into outings, owambe and turn-up. You planned to save. You spent. No regrets.
The Ghost Spender
Money enters, money disappears into small spending you can never trace. Not broke, just haunted.
