You Are Sanguine
Curious and creative, you love the little pleasure of life and enjoy impressing others. You take risks to follow your dreams and can get easily bored. You like to focus on a few things at once to keep your life busy and interesting.
You Are Choleric
As a person with respect for money you enjoy working, but do not like to be subjected to others. You like to prove your abilities rather than talk about them, and you tend to be analytical. However, your impatience is a constant hindrance you need to control in order to get what you want.
You Are Phlegmatic
Your imagination is what seperates you from others, and you are constantly working to deeply understand the thoughts and emotions of those around you. You look for the most beneficial solution to problems, and keep your calm through it all.
You Are Melancholic
This may sound bad in today's use of the word, but back then it meant you may be a realist or a pessimist at times. You are patient, very loyal to your close circle of family and friends, and like to work within a framework. You often take serious time to think about an important decision and contemplate on all the facts influencing it. This often leads you to wise, well thought decisions.
