    I got 80% - but I think that some of the answers are subjective. For example, DH and I don't particularly like traveling, so we don't take vacations, so I don't have vacation fund (question 1).

    I got 85% but because I save 50% of my check they docked me 5%. So it should be 90%.

    I got an 85% but I got docked 5% because I save 50% of my check and not 10-15% like others. So I should have a 90%.

    75% out of a hundred however there were a couple of questions that didn't apply and 1 or 2 I thought could have had different answers like the inherited money one, I would open up a business that I've wanted to open since our retirement is very well funded.

    I got 70%. One thing I got wrong was that I didn't notice when I got a raise - it said I should go have a celebration dinner! ? I also don't agree that all my excess money should go into stocks. I got docked for that. Oh, adn it said I should go on vacation with a fund, even though I am not likely to want to spend the money. Hmmmm..............

    90%, but docked me 5% for saving 50% of my income. That is just wrongheaded reasoning.
