"men with longer ring fingers, compared to their index fingers, tended to be more successful in the frantic high-frequency trading "
"One study, which looked at average finger ratios in university departments found that faculty from math, science and engineering exhibited longer index finger ratio, rather than ring finger."
neat! interesting! but..
"The length ratio between those two fingers is determined during the development of the fetus and the relatively longer ring finger indicates greater exposure to the male hormone androgen"
this knowledge, like all knowledge, could be misused, albeit very cool and interesting knowledge indeed!
