The Color of My Money

I've taken a lot of online surveys and quizzes for fun but this one my girlfriend found was pretty damn accurate:
It's basically a quiz that determines what careers are best for you based on the colors you prefer to look at - but not necessarily the colors you prefer to wear or decorate with.

When people ask me what would I have become if I didn't become a journalist I ALWAYS say librarian and people laugh cause whatever they think of when they think of a librarian, they can't picture me as that. But this survey agreed with what I have been saying all along. Librarian would have been a great career choice for me.

See my results below and take the quiz for yourself.
