Ha ha, dear Med, superb multiple-choice million $ Qns.
Big wok, unable to pick one answer, fails liao. May be submit the unorthodox one, The Schizophrenia.
What's your type ?
Eight Money Archetypes.
The Innocent
The Innocent tends to take the ostrich approach to money matters.
Innocents often live in denial, burying their heads in the sand so
that they won't have to see what is going on around them. Innocents
are easily overwhelmed by financial information and rely heavily on
the advice and opinions of others. Innocents are perhaps the most
trusting of all the money types.
The Victim
The Victim money type is prone to living in the past and may blame
their financial woes on external factors. Victims generally have a
litany of excuses for why they are not more successful and are often
very attached to their 'story'. That is not to say that bad things
haven't actually happened to the Victim. More often than not, Victim
money types have been abused, betrayed, or have suffered some great
loss.
The Creator/Artist
Creators/Artists are generally those who are on a spiritual or
artistic path. They often find living in the material world difficult
and frequently have a conflicted love/hate relationship with money.
They love money for the freedom it buys them, yet they have little or
no desire to participate in the material world.
The Martyr
Martyrs are so busy taking care of others' needs that they often
neglect their own. Financially speaking, Martyrs generally do more
for others than they do for themselves. They often rescue others (a
child, spouse, friend, partner) from some circumstance or other.
However, Martyrs do not always let go of what they give and are
repeatedly let down when others fail to measure up to their
expectations.
The Fool
The Fool plays by a different set of rules altogether. A gambler
by nature, the Fool is always looking for a windfall of money by
taking financial short-cuts. The Fool lives very much in the moment
and is quite unattached to future outcome.
The Tyrant
Tyrants use money to control people, events, and circumstances.
The Tyrant hoards money, using it to manipulate and control others.
Although Tyrants may have everything they need or desire, they never
feel complete, comfortable, or at peace. The Tyrant's greatest fear
is loss of control.
The Warrior
The Warrior sets out to conquer the money world and is generally
seen as successful in the business and financial worlds. Warriors are
adept investors - focused, decisive, and in control. Although
Warriors will listen to advisers, they make their own decisions and
rely on their own instincts and resources to guide them.
The Magician
The Magician is the ideal money type. Armed with the knowledge of
the past, the Magician has made peace with his personal history, and
understands that his source of power exists within, in his ability to
see and live the truth of who he is.

I'm sure they rest a bit will be back. Roller coaster for the rest of us.
I don't understand a wee bit of what you are talking about...
But I do know that once the market monster beast has 'whacked' the daylights out of a person,
he/she will take a long, long time to recover,
that is if he/she can recover
at all...
hehehe...
I understand your sentiment, tho a bit contradicting to me.....
When a child grown up to become an adult, he has to leave his/her parents and become independent mah!
Thus, naturally, when a "tudi" had master the skill, he has to come down the Bk. Timah hill and leave the "sifu" lor?
Unless, he haven't master the skill yet?

Ha ha, enjoy below, see u can laugh until dun go for lunch?
A BC Indian picks up a hooker off the streets of Vancouver.
'How much you charge for hour, sister?' he asks.
'$100,' she replies. He says 'You do Indian style?' 'No' she says.
' I pay you $200 do it Indian style'
'No', she says, not knowing what Indian style is.
'I pay you $300' 'No', she says.
'I pay you $400' 'No', she says.
So finally he says, 'OK, I pay you $1,000 to do it Indian style..'
She thinks, 'Well, I've been in the game for over 10 years now. I've had every kind of request from weirdos from every part of the world. How bad could Indian Style be?' So she agrees and has sex with him.They do it in every kind of way and in every possible position. Finally, after several hours, they finish. Exhausted, the hooker turns to him and says, 'Hey, I was expecting something perverted and disgusting. But that was good.
So what exactly is 'Indian style'?'
The Indian replies 'You send bill to Government'
