Your level of job satisfaction may have something to do with how well your role fits your personality.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator personality test, which measures preferences like introversion and extroversion, has been part of business culture for decades.

Today about 80% of the Fortune 500 and 89 of Fortune 100 companies use it in an attempt to get employees into the right roles and help teams work well together.

To determine five of the best jobs for every personality, we consulted one of the most popular personality guides based on the Myers-Briggs system, "Do What You Are," which is now in its fifth edition and has sold more than 1 million copies. The book is not affiliated with CPP, the company that is the exclusive publisher of the MBTI instrument.

We also spoke with one of its authors, Paul Tieger. As CEO of SpeedReading People LLC, Tieger has spent 30 years advising companies and people on how personality types can help teams work together.

Of course, the job lists aren't meant to be definitive, but rather serve as a fun way to see how certain occupations attract a particular kind of person.

Figure out which type suits you best, and then check out the charts below.

Most of us would like to be free of debt.

That's why stories of regular people paying off thousands are so inspiring: If they can do it, maybe we can, too.

However, before setting our sights on completely paying off our mortgage or eliminating every cent of our student loans years ahead of schedule, it's important to meet any other debts that might take priority, explains certified financial planner and certified public accountant Jordan Niefeld from Raymond James Financial.

"Choosing to pay off the wrong debt may be very costly," he explains. You should always be making at least minimum payments on your debts, so before committing your cash to make extra payments on a single debt, here — listed from most to least urgent — are the debts Niefeld recommends making sure you can cover.

SEE ALSO: Financial planners share the smartest decisions they've seen clients make with their money

1. Housing costs

If you have a mortgage, Niefeld says, that should be your first priority. This includes second mortgages or home equity loans. "If you fall behind, you will not only ruin your credit, but your bank may be able to foreclose," he explains. "Foreclosures really lower your score up to seven years by almost 200 points. It's difficult, if you default, to try to take out any loan going forward — even trying to rent a home. It's a very nasty, negative thing to have on your credit."

2. Property taxes and insurance

Housing costs include your property taxes and insurance. "If you don't pay your property taxes, there will be tax liens and the IRS can come after you," says Niefeld. "Even if the taxing authority takes possession of your home, you're still going to owe the mortgage. Bottom line: Always maintain your property tax. That includes homeowner's insurance — if you default, they just add it to the mortgage anyway."

3. Other secured debt, such as auto loans

A secured debt is one where the lender issues some type of collateral, like a car (or house), as opposed to unsecured debt based on the borrower's agreement to repay, like credit card debt. Niefeld explains that secured debts should take priority over unsecured debts.

For instance, with an auto loan, enough missed debt payments could lead to your car being repossessed. That could have a significant impact on your ability to maintain an income and meet your debt obligations. "If you're using your vehicle to go to work, you need to make sure you can get to work," he says. "You will not have a car because they will repossess it. Know the difference between secured and unsecured debt."

Apple just sent out press invitations for its annual fall iPhone event, which will take place on September 9.

Though the limelight is often reserved for new iPhones, it might be shared this time with a new Apple TV.

The last time we saw a new Apple TV was way back in 2012, so we're expecting a lot of rather monumental changes.

Here are some of the most plausible rumors about the next Apple TV upgrade.

It'll have a new sleeker, thinner design.

John Paczkowski of BuzzFeed reports that the new Apple TV design will be "more polished." That could mean that it'll have a sleeker look, with a potentially thinner profile. 

This is entirely likely, especially when we consider the size difference between the first Apple TV and the current model, which is a lot smaller and sleeker.

It might come with a new remote with a touchpad.

Back in May of this year, Brian X. Chen of The New York Times reported that the new Apple TV might come with a new remote with a touchpad that would give you a similar way to navigate around the Apple TV as the touchpad on a laptop.  

The report suggested that the new remote will still have the two main buttons for the play/pause and menu functions, but that it would be slightly thicker than the current remote. 

It might have Siri for voice commands.

Apple's iPhone event invite looks like it could be dropping hints about the new Apple TV.

This helps fortify the BuzzFeed report and several rumors before it suggested that Siri could also be included.

Siri on the new Apple TV may allow you to navigate around the user interface using your voice. For example, you could command the Apple TV to go to the Netflix app without touching the remote.

"I have a dream ... " We all know the words that start the famous speech.

But Martin Luther King Jr.'s crowning moment may never have happened without one of the largest protests ever — the March on Washington on August 28, 1963.

After growing backlash against blacks in the South, King and five others planned the event, a peaceful demonstration to end segregation and promote equal rights.

King crafted his famous speech specifically for the 250,000 people who would gather in the nation's capital that day.

In 1963, Birmingham, Alabama had become the epicenter of racist violence in America. A KKK member bombed a Baptist church, killing four young girls in September. Denise McNair, 11; Carole Robertson, 14; Addie Mae Collins, 14; and Cynthia Wesley, 14; from left, died in the fire.

Source: Associated Press

As a result, Martin Luther King, Jr. turned his focus to the area, organizing many anti-segregation demonstrations there. Police arrested King and his fellow civil rights proponent, Rev. Ralph Abernathy, on April 12, 1963 during a demonstration.

The situation in the South continued to worsen. Below, firefighters in Birmingham turn a high-powered hose on peaceful demonstrators. Bayard Rustin, the march's head organizer, said that credit for mobilizing the march could go to "Bull Connor [Commissioner of Public Safety in Birmingham], his police dogs, and his fire hoses."

When people ask me where I live, I jokingly reply, “out of my suitcase.”

These days I am perpetually packed for 11 months of the year, never knowing if I will land in the South Pacific or Siberia.

True story: I was in Istanbul, packed for a 3-month assignment in Papua New Guinea, when my office called to tell me my project was canceled and I’d be heading to Mongolia instead.

Slight change of plans, right?

Although my situation is a bit extreme, like all travel warriors, I know what I need, I know what I don’t need, and I know how to charm the airline staff at check-in so they don’t charge me for those extra kilos.

Remarkably, I can pack and unpack my 11-month suitcase in 20 minutes flat.

Whether bumming around South America for 4 months or being the full-time working nomad I am now, I never leave home without these 15 little items.

E-Bags packing cubes

These have changed my life, and account for 90% of the reason I can pack and unpack everything I travel with so quickly.

I buy them in all sizes, shapes, and colors and they function like drawers in a dresser that I can throw into my suitcase or backpack.

They protect and organize my wardrobe so I know where my blouses for work are, which one has my socks and underwear, and that my cosmetics are in the leopard print one. 

A few hangers

I always have one hanger for each piece of good clothing I bring with me. They weigh nothing and provide a tremendous amount of convenience.

Especially when I arrive in Addis Ababa after 28 hours of travel and have a business meeting in 3 hours, I can hang my suit in the shower, turn on the hot water, and steam those wrinkles out in 5 minutes. 

Extra debit cards

Travel banking rule #1: Never tie yourself to one bank and NEVER to one debit card. I was once in Bangkok when my bank decided my card had been involved in an international money laundering scam and shut it off without consulting me.

I was left penniless in Southeast Asia for 10 days while I waited for the new card to be shipped to me. If I had had an alternate banking option, I would have been fine. My advice is to open an account at a new bank before you leave for anywhere, throw a couple grand in it, and pack that debit card as your spare.

(Travel banking rule #2: Always have at least a few hundred dollars of cash on you in case of emergency. That’s how I survived those 10 days.)

Noel Biderman, the founder of Ashley Madison, has resigned. 

The controversial extra-marital affairs site was hacked in July, resulting in the leak of more than 30 million users' highly compromising personal data. Facing catastrophic reputational damage as well as multiple lawsuits for hundreds of millions of dollars, parent company Avid Life Media announced on Friday that Biderman has left the company

This is the story of his strange rise to become the self-proclaimed "most hated man on the internet"— and his extremely sudden fall. 

Born in 1971, Biderman is a Toronto native. The grandson of Holocaust survivors, he is Jewish — although unsurprisingly, he thinks the 10 Commandments are "outdated."

He studied Economics at the University of California in the late 1980s, his LinkedIn profile reveals, before returning to Toronto to study Law at the Osgoode Hall Law School.

Over the past few months, I've provided the recommended reading lists from Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Warren Buffet, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Sheryl Sandberg and Richard Branson.

Most of those books, however, are what might be called "heavy" in the sense that they take a few hours to read and absorb.

Since time is money, here are some important business lessons gleaned from books we might remember from our childhood:

Alice Through the Looking Glass

Author: Lewis Carroll

Summary: A young girl slips through a mirror into a land where time moves backwards.

What It Teaches: A single quote (from the Red Queen) neatly summarizes the entrepreneurial experience: "Here, you see, it takes all the running you can do to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that."

Everyone Poops

Author: Taro Gomi

Summary: Pointing out that every animal excretes makes potty training more palatable for toddlers.

What It Teaches: No matter where you work, there's going to be poop and, by extension, that poop is destined to roll downhill.

Goodnight Moon

Author: Margaret Rice Brown

Summary: The repetition of "goodnight" to the objects in a fictional room creates a feeling of safety.

What It Teaches: Rituals create patterns of thought that become more powerful with each repetition. Your personal rituals — what you do and say each day — mold your experience and creates success or failure. For example, ending each day by writing down everything good that happened that day gradually makes you experience life more optimistically.

In the winter of 2013, David Fung and his wife Yena Kim drove up from New York to the Catskills for a weekend with Bodhi, their charismatic Shiba Inu.

Like pet owners are known to do, they dressed him up — cardigan sweater, shirt, and tie. 

Just like that, a menswear icon was born.

Today, Bodhi is featured in the New York Times ...

... and top-flight advertisements.

It all started back in January 2013, when David (a graphic designer) and Yena (a fashion designer) uploaded their first photos of a dressed-up Bodhi to Tumblr.

Sometimes, an investor can find a silver lining in market chaos.

NOW WATCH: RED EVERYWHERE: It’s a global market meltdown

Activist investors are putting cash to work like never before, setting their sights on bigger targets and extracting enormous paydays from companies once thought untouchable. 

They’re awash with cash, as investors in search of returns in a low-interest rate environment pump cash in to the strategy.

Some of the boldface names of activist investing have made billions this year alone.

Business Insider takes a look back at some of the most successful plays by activist investors in recent memory. 

Carl Icahn & Icahn Enterprises pushed Tim Cook to cut a bigger dividend check

Icahn has made an expected $5 billion off two trades: Apple and Netflix. Apple was his activist play, with Icahn earlier this year elbowing CEO Tim Cook to use some of the company’s cash holdings of nearly $200 billion to do buybacks. That earned Icahn Enterprises a reported $3.4 billion profit on Apple. 

Bill Ackman & Pershing Square Management lost and still won

Pershing Square Capital last year bought nearly 10% of Botox maker Allergan and tried to push the company in to a sale to Valeant to earn a quick buck. New Jersey-based competitor Actavis stepped in with a $219 per share bid. That was nearly double what Ackman spent to invest in Allergan. Pershing bagged a $2.6 billion profit on the transaction, according to a New York Times report.

Jeffrey Smith & Starboard Value bagged $200 million in paper gains on Darden

Jeff Smith spun Starboard out of Cowen Group in 2011, and has already racked up plenty of wins and some impressive returns. The fund took a stake in Darden Restaurants at an average of $51.03 a share back in 2013. He succeeded in replacing the entire board last year. By the end of trading Thursday the stock stood at $68.85. Starboard holds more than 11.6 million shares of the stock, giving the firm a paper gain of about $200 million. Smith and Starboard are now shaking up retailer Macy’s.

Heavy fighting broke out in Gaza last summer after Israel launched Operation Protective Edge. The devastating 50-day conflict that followed came to a halt a year ago today, when the Israelis and Palestinians agreed to an indefinite ceasefire. 

The conflict had catastrophic consequences. Tens of thousands of homes were destroyed, leaving 100,000 people homeless. More than 2,000 Palestinians were killed. Six Israeli civilians and 64 Israeli soldiers were also killed. 

According to Avaaz, an online activist network, the reconstruction of Gaza could take 17 years due to severe restrictions on the import and export of raw building materials; 35 prominent aid organizations including Avaaz, Oxfam, and World Vision International are publicly calling for an end to the Gaza blockade. 

Meanwhile, Gazans continue to live amid rubble that serves as an everyday reminder of the war.

Cement is one of the main materials needed for reconstruction, and it is on the Israeli list of products that are not allowed into Gaza. The cement factory has also been bombed, so rebuilding relies on salvaging remains from ruins.

Instagram is undeniably fun, but sometimes it can feel like you are chucking minutes and hours of your life into the void. There is an element of mindless pleasure in it. But there's another app where photosharing actually helps save lives. That app is Figure 1, sometimes called the "Instagram for doctors."

Dr. Josh Landy thought up the idea for Figure 1 when he noticed that doctors were texting each other photos in order to communicate about cases. They would ask each other questions, or prep colleagues for a case. But why not expand that circle, and use doctors around the world to help out?

That's what sparked Landy to create Figure 1, a network where doctors share photos, wisdom, and "likes" with their counterparts around the world. He has raised more than $8 million for the app from investors like Union Square Ventures.

The results of Figure 1 are fascinating. Looking at the app is a glimpse into the strange world of doctors, complete with bizarre cases, gallows humor, and a palpable sense of how many lives are being saved.

To comply with HIPAA and protect patients, the app removes all identifying features, like tattoos and faces, from each photo. Patients also must sign a consent form in the app before the doctor can share a photo.

Here's what happens in Figure 1:

When Matt Gibson left his native British Columbia in 2004, he wasn't looking for adventure.

He was looking for a way to pay off his student loans.

Gibson, now 36, graduated with about $10,000 in student loan debt, and had been working planting trees to try and earn some extra cash when he met a man whose girlfriend was in Taiwan, teaching English to pay off about $70,000 of her own student loans. His new friend quickly joined her.

"At the end of the season I emailed him and he said, 'Come on over,'" Gibson remembers.

Over ten years later, Gibson is still on the move, working as an adventure travel writer and photographer.

"I had a degree in journalism and some ideas about how printing worked, but that's a far cry from running a magazine," he says. "As new problems came up, new problems got solved. I learned Chinese to have the basic advertising conversation and the first ones, I delivered myself. I didn't know how to find a printer — I found one. I didn't know how to prepare the magazine for print — I figured it out."
