Jyoti Basu's career must offer Jyoti Basu both intellectual stimulation and diversity. Jyoti Basu like to do many things at one time, and probably will have two professions.

Being methodical and careful about details, Jyoti Basu is well-fitted for such work as is afforded by the Civil Service. Jyoti Basu would do well in a bank and, in many respects, Jyoti Basu have the painstaking qualities required for the scholastic profession. In businesses, where success depends on rigid routine, Jyoti Basu ought to be happy, and all the posts which fall to people who can plod their way through examinations should be within Jyoti Basu's grasp. Jyoti Basu can be an excellent film director. But, Jyoti Basu should not go for actor because it does not fit to Jyoti Basu's temperament.

In matters relating to financial prospects Jyoti Basu will be largely the arbitrator of Jyoti Basu's own destiny. The success of Jyoti Basu's work will come first in every way. If Jyoti Basu belong to the higher plane which Jyoti Basu's natural gifts entitle Jyoti Basu to occupy, Jyoti Basu will always find the wealth and gain high position, but in such things Jyoti Basu will never be satisfied. Jyoti Basu always crave for the something just beyond Jyoti Basu's means. Jyoti Basu will be most generous in money matters and inclined to reduce Jyoti Basu's reserves by giving to benevolent institutions and helping Jyoti Basu's relatives.
