◆ Career paths for each MBTI Type
◆ How does your personality type affect your income?

Personality type that makes the least $
Those with the INFP (Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Perceiving) personality type on average earn the least. INFP’s are service-oriented people, usually putting the needs of others above their own.

Since they are loyal and devoted to other people and causes, it makes sense that making money isn’t their primary goal.

They value deep and authentic relationships and are introverted, so they tend to miss opportunities that may give them chances to make more money. Freedom and flexibility in their career are more important than income potential. Many INFP’s are artists, musicians, and creative writers. This is why many INFPs epitomize the term “starving artists.”

Money is about experience & enjoyment for these 2 personality types. They want to live life to the fullest, & money is a resource to make that possible. Spontaneous trips across the world, tickets to music festivals, or putting money down on bold business ventures adds excitement.
They don’t mind taking some financial risks, especially if the reward seems possible. Entrepreneurially-minded, to them playing it safe means missing out on some of the joys & thrills in life. As these types get into mid-life they tend to prioritize saving more, but will always try to make sure they have some “wiggle room” for spontaneous adventures & fun.

When it comes to money, these types are some of the most structured. They like detailed, specific budgets & will balance them to the tee. Planning for retirement & saving for their children’s college are big priorities. When they feel secure with a cushion in savings, they’ll enjoy finding ways to enrich their life.

Often they splurge on things like high-quality furniture, kitchen or home tools, or club memberships & save up for a yearly vacation to a well-loved location.
ESTJs have a knack for taking calculated risks & making strong investments.
ESFJs enjoy gift-giving, saving up for group experiences & tasteful, high-end clothing.

These types have a flexible approach with money. They enjoy having a regular financial amount set aside in case of an emergency, but also like the freedom to use it when fun opportunities pop up. Whether that means investing in a winery or backpacking across Europe, they are always on the lookout for adventures that will make them feel like they have truly lived.
ISPs see money for enjoying their hobbies & interests. If  married, they tend to enjoy living in comfort, with high-quality furnishings & home appliances. They may use their money for friends in need, helping out in a crisis or emergency.

These types are all about saving for a rainy day. Detailed & precise with their budgets, ISJs prioritize paying their bills & having a well-padded savings account. Practical & dutiful, they’re likely to attend a Dave Ramsey conference or hire a financial advisor.

In fact, according to the MBTI® Manual, ISTJs are the most frequent accountants. Paying off student loans, mortgages, & bills ahead of schedule is important to them. When they do have extra money, they enjoy spending it on comforts that make life more enjoyable. High-quality furniture, outings to their favorite restaurants, & trips to favorite vacation spots are fun while ensuring they stay within their means
