    The NYT states that boys are more likely to pick the same line of work as their dads than their moms while girls are slightly more likely to follow their moms than their dads when it comes to jobs.

    The jobs that are most likely to be passed down to the next generation include lawyer, doctor, baker, legislator, and steelworker. Meanwhile, parents who are middle managers, clerical workers, or service workers are less likely to have their children pick the same profession. Our verdict? It’s time to follow your dream of opening up a quaint bakery in the countryside.
