Monkeys are clever, inventive, and quick-witted. They are one of the smartest signs of the zodiac, and few puzzles elude this intelligent character! They are charming and funny, often the life and soul of the party. An evening with a monkey is never boring! They often have fantastic self-confidence.
On the negative side, they can suffer from superiority complexes and have little tolerance for those they deem not as clever as they. They can at times be jealous and over-competitive.Â
Career-wise, they make good engineers, salespeople, film directors, actors, and writers.
