What Kind of Survivor Are You? Quiz
This is an interesting little quiz to take to see how you handle emergencies and assorted trials (like financial melt-downs). It's based on a book called "The Survivors Club", written by a guy who interviewed hundreds of people who had survived various calamities.
There are 5 possible outcomes. Which are you?
