I'm 1 of 2. I definitely used to fit the profile of a first born but I have changed alot and now am quite the risk taker.

Hmmm.... 1st of 4.

I have a professional position (software engineer) and I also play poker.

I'm the youngest out of two, and I am a musician and a poker player, so for me it holds true. On the other hand I'm getting my masters degree this week and I am holding a professional position as well from next week on, so I am also career-oriented.

My older brother doesn't play poker and is not artistically in any way.

My girlfriend is the oldest out of four and she is risk averse and overly concerned with trying to meet others expectations, so for her it holds true as well.
On the other hand, she is artistically talented.

I guess it does make sense, since younger siblings are usually raised more liberally when parents got more experience with raising childs.

I have one younger sister and we are the opposite of how we "should" be.

Oldest of two. I'm risk averse and concerned about meeting expectations. My brother is less so and this model fits quite well.

I'm 3of3, but my brother (1of3) is the one that got me into poker.
