I first thought this was just a joke when I read it, but it's true: You can measure a man's ring finger to determine his success as a financial trader.

Msn.com reports that The University of Cambridge in England employed researchers to find whether finger length could be considered a determining factor of male worker's success in the financial field.

Lo and behold! - This crazy fact was true! Researchers report that "men with longer ring fingers, compared to their index fingers, tended to be more successful...in the financial district."  The same proved to be true for male athletes, especially those who compete in soccer and basketball.

'But what determines finger lengths?'; Researchers next investigated this question. They found the ratio between the first and ring fingers to be dependent on the amount of exposure to the male hormone androgen.  This exposure to androgen can also supposedly lead to "increased confidence, risk preferences, search persistence, heightened vigilance, and quickened reaction times."

What do YOU think? Do you believe that finger length can predict your money-making future?
