I knew the Experiencer was me as soon as I read the first sentence "young, enthusiastic, and impulsive." Although in some of my purchases I can come off as somewhat frugal (I enjoy getting deals on everyday foodstuffs and clothing) I've been known to blow a large amount of money on big weekend trips (Mohegan Sun for Professional Bull Riding) and on fancy clothes or gadgets.
I also am attracted to the new, the offbeat and the risky, just like the description states. The PBR show was definitely an example, because I really only went because I had never been before. I ended up spending a bunch of money on booze and a hotel room etc. Nonetheless, I had an incredible time and it was quite the "experience" even though I may never do it again.
My secondary group was innovator, which also describes me rather well. I think a lot of this may be a result of my household income, which supports both styles of consumption, but this one rings true as well in spite of that fact. I am as excited by being unique, cutting edge and interesting as I am by new experiences. I would like to think that someday I will fully fulfill this category (enough income to buy new and interesting things, emerging leader in business) in which case my types may shift and put innovator first, experiencer second.
