Dear everyone,

I recently took an online test on what kind of career would best fit my personality. In general terms, I fit the Investigative - Artistic - Social type (in that order). More specifically, my top results were Anthropologist, Political Scientist, Sociologist, Astronomer, etc...

Now, the test said one should answer the questions based on what they would feel most comfortable doing, ignoring money and status (the Enterprising type - which I scored dead last - is the one most fitted for pursuits most likely to get one money and power). But the thing is, I *do* care about money and status. So I asked the people in charge about what their advice is. Here is the response:

“Hi, anyone can do jobs that do not fit their personality, they just will perform worse and it will be more tiring, even exhausting… it’s like marrying someone you do not love, possible, but not something I would recommend. The alternative is to seek status / money through other ways, ….”

1. Is this true? If I become, for example, an entrepreneur of some sort, will I be miserable?

2. What other ways?

Am I doomed to either spend my life either doing something that doesn’t fit my personality or not getting anywhere near the money and power I desire, remaining the insignificant worm that I am?

Thank you in advance for any answers.
