If you want to have that always visible in that location I think you're going to have to use a custom theme. But if it's okay in the dropdown you get when hovering over the username left of the post,

Admin → Configuration → Core Features → Advanced Profile Fields.

You can also choose to make it show up above the signature. I think the rest is probably self-explanatory. :)

Or if you don't want to go for an entirely new theme, just a little tweak to the default one, either way, yes to make it immediately visible it requires a little theme edit.

Does that mean you want to know how to make it visible or it is fine in the dropdown?
