Are you diehard/Boglehead ?

Take this questionnaire and find out if you are diehard/Boglehead when it comes to your personal finance. I have copied this questionnaire from this thread on www.bogleheads.org

My score is 16. I lost one point on question 6 since my portfolio has small cap tilt. But I am comfortable with risks associated with small cap premiums (less volatile than REIT fund in my Roth :-D). And obviously, it meets my sleep test.
