The economy of a good country can be seen from how many people are involved in entrepreneurship activities in order to meet their needs. This condition also happened in Indonesia, where currently many Indonesians are choosing this field. Unfortunately this activity is not done consistently and regularly, and they do it as a side job only. The reason is that they assume this activity can not support their life and give them the desired financial satisfaction. This study is limited on how financial satisfaction of entrepreneurs toward their financial literacy and financial behavior. This study aims to determine the level of financial satisfaction of entrepreneurs, measuring from their financial awareness and financial behavior. The number of samples was taken as 60, consists of entrepreneurs and also students who have chosen this field. By using regression analysis, found that financial literacy and financial behavior can influence financial satisfaction of entrepreneurs. We can conclude that a good financial literacy covered by good reputation can help them in determining accurate decisions, determined to financial management, and also a good financial behavior will help them to be fair. Both of these cases will help in obtaining financial satisfaction.
