Abstract

The aim of this paper is to examine the influence of money attitude on the per- ception of own financial standing. The typological approach to attitudes towards money was used, thus it concentrates on two instrumental (reflective managers and detached hedonists) and two symbolic attitudes (anxious admirers and money repel- lers). People presenting various money attitudes differs in terms of their perception of wealth, and in each group the relation between income and the perception of one’s financial standing is of different character.
