    A criminal mob type.

    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    I watched a biography on him some years ago and I think SLE is most likely, though I don't think he is a good example of one since I believe he was a sociopath

    He was very much likely LIE, a cunning and astute (albeit criminally oriented) businessman.

    I guess people just buy in the whole "criminal=SLE" stereotype, not judging how a specific criminal operates.

    Al Capone VI's like an LIE-Ni to me.

    Interestingly enough, his nemesis, Eliot Ness, VI's like an LIE-0.

    I know two LIE guys who look almost exactly like these two.

    That's what I thought. I just watched some pictures of him and he instantly reminded me of ex premier Silvio Berlusconi, whom I believe to be LIE.

    LIE-Te 8w7 sx/so (I've got Leona Helmsley LIE-Te 8w7 sp/sx and Paul Leroux LIE-Ni 8w7 sx/sp)

    here's my breakdown for 8w7 sx/so (the most expansive 8 in terms of exercising power through control over resources and eliminating competition; empire-building):

    Pablo Escobar: ILE-Ti 8w7 sx/so
    Jim Jones: ILE-Ne 8w7 sx/so
    Al Capone: LIE-Te 8w7 sx/so
    Lucky Luciano: LIE-Ni 8w7 sx/so
    Griselda Blanco: SLE-Se 8w7 sx/so

    sx/so 8w7 is the least mentally tough and sadistic/vicious of the 8w7s...their stomach isn't as strong and mind shows some paranoid trends in response to the gruesomeness of war. Capone can't beat a Bulger... In a mafia war, Bulger's sadism would eventually crack Capone such that traces of paranoia would start to show up in Capone's decisionmaking.

    8w7 only correlates with ILE, LIE, LSE, SLE.

    Marie was a good example of somebody who typed through a one typology socionics filter:

    The one typology socionics filter is a now obsolete relic of the past like quadra values.
