You may place no importance on your birth order or the alignment of the stars and planets. But a survey of more than 8,700 workers conducted by Harris Interactive found that first-born children are more likely than their siblings to earn $100,000 or more per year. Last-born children are least likely to earn six figures.

First-born children—more likely to be drawn to the professions of government, engineering, pharmacy, and science; more likely to hold senior management positions or be vice presidents.

Middle children—more likely to work in nursing, law enforcement, firefighting, and machine operation; more likely to identify with professional/technical staff level positions.

Last-born children—more likely to become artists/designers, salespeople, and information technologists; more likely to hold administrative or clerical positions.

When it comes to how the stars affect your wallet, the study found that the astrological signs of Scorpio, Leo, Taurus, and Cancer were more likely to be paid $100,000 or more annually; Aquarius and Capricorn signs were among those most likely to earn $35,000 or less.
