I have a lot of friends that are heavy into Myers-Briggs that I think will enjoy this. I can't imagine you'll mind, so I am putting a link to this article from my website in my next post, which will be entitled "My Week Around the Blogs". I'm highlighting some posts I've enjoyed this week that I think my readers might also enjoy. Please email me if there is a problem, and I'll remove the link immediately. Best, Lisa Hi,

I can see how it might change the method, but I think the other continuums would have more effect.

As for managing money... I think extroverts would feel the itch to trade more frequently and try to make money no matter what the market is doing. Maybe they should be hedge fund guys? Introverts will make good value investors. They analyze the data, make a purchase, and evaluate the performance. Just my $0.02. I am an introvert and I am more comfortable around other introverts.

You mentioned that extroverts tend to make more money and more of them are CEOs which again doesn't surprise me... so the ideal situation is getting a Extrovert who will drive the business partnered with an introvert who will keep a closer analysis of things.

The Extrovert-Introvert spectrum is the most profound, but things might be more complex than saying introverts may be better money handlers. There are many different types of extroverts that are calculated and exacting with all sorts of things, money included. While extroverts may be less deliberative, they might be more goal-oriented. Anyways, great post! Very interesting. Actually, Jungian typology has three more continuums: Intuitive-Sensing, Thinker-Feeler, Perceptive-Judging.
