Personality Traits & Characteristics of Famous People Born on June 16

Personality
Because these people are comfortable in their own skin, they are usually quiet and reserved until they feel a need to voice their opinions. They think outside the box and often impress others with their intellectual capability. Other people don't tend to notice them until they speak up. However, once they do, they leave a lasting impression. These people can quickly command the respect of others and are effective communicators and leaders.

Health
Often hypersensitive to their own aches and pains, these people tend to be hypochondriacs and make frequent unnecessary trips to the doctor's office. Because of this, health problems are often discovered early on. They tend to be healthy eaters, and can often become fanatical, even obsessive over their diets. They enjoy aquatic sports, primarily solo swimming and surfing.

Finance
While they don't tend to amass financial wealth, they are careful with what money they do have, and can often agonize and stress over the smallest of purchases. Though they usually earn meager wages, they are able to live comfortably and do not have any long term issues with consumer debt.

Career
These people usually thrive in the field of academia. They enjoy the flexibility of being able to pursue their individual interests, while also being able to bestow their wealth of knowledge upon others. They make wonderful college professors and lecturers.

Relationships, Marriage & Children

Once these individuals find the right person, they are often thoughtful and caring, though they do not have a natural compulsion towards romantic gestures. If they do have children, it tends to be later in life. Though they may make a sincere attempt to parent their offspring, they are often at a loss on how to relate to them.
