There are also a number of short CEOs who have succeeded by avoiding the corporate ladder and starting their own companies. This is definitely the case for Ross Perot, who is a self-made billionaire. Ron Perelman and Barry Diller also started their own companies instead of trying to move up from inside a company.

还有很多身材低矮的CEO通过自己开公司取得成功，而不是通过在公司内部一个阶梯一个阶梯往上爬。罗斯-佩罗就是一个典型的白手起家的亿万富翁。罗恩-佩雷曼和巴瑞-迪勒也都是这样打出了自己的天下。

What are the best and worst jobs for tall people?

什么工作最适合高个子，什么最不适合？

Tall people make more money and also tend to cluster in higher-paying fields. This is because they tend to thrive in fields in which social interactions take place, since they're helped by their body language. So tall traits are going to shine in these kinds of jobs. For example, if I were a litigator, I would be able to use the full power of my tall body to command presence, whereas if I were a clerk sitting behind a desk, I would gain no benefit from being tall. Granted, plenty of tall people flock to other fields -- for example, there are a disproportionate number of tall people in police work, firefighting work, and physical work where being tall would be of value.

高个子的人赚钱更多，也更容易聚集在高薪领域。这是因为得益于他们的身体语言，他们易于在社交互动性强的领域成功，也就是说高大的身材会在这类型的工作中发挥优势。例如，如果我是一名律师，我就能充分利用我身高的优势来把握我的表现，相反假如我是一个文秘，每天坐在桌子后面，那么我的身高就无用武之地。当然，还有很多高个子的人涌向其他的领域。例如在警察、消防员和其他一些能发挥身高优势的行业中，个子高的人占有极大的比例。
