TOP 5 JOBS FOR PSYCHOPATHS
#5: Surgeon
Psychopaths have something called, "stress immunity." Surgeons have to make fast, tough, but accurate decisions, so being "immune" to stress is actually an admirable trait.
#4: Salesperson
Relentless desire for more makes a psychopath a great salesperson. Shameless self-promotion and lack of empathy make for a top-shelf salesperson.
#3: Radio/TV Personality
Crap. The shameless self-promotion on top of narcissism is almost a requirement to get very far in broadcasting/media. Being able to stay calm under pressure (see "stress immunity") makes for a cool, collected broadcast star. Yes, we're nuts.
#2: Lawyer
Shocker? Nah. Copious amounts of self-confidence and charm combined with being a cold-hearted bastard makes for a lawyer that you want on your team.
#1: CEO
All of the traits above smooshed into one firey (rich) nutbag in charge of an entire company. The ability to cause chaos for everyone around them while staying cool will make them seem gooder than they are.
