Personality Traits & Characteristics of Famous People Born on May 28

Personality
People born on May 28 are naturally high strung and have a tendency to speak before thinking. Often unaware of the social consequences, they avoid large groups of people in order to not be put in a position of forced social interaction. Be this as it may, once these people open up and feel at ease, they are often well liked and approachable. They are intelligent and wise and are constantly searching for ways to broaden their insights.

Health
People born on this day tend to underplay any health issues that they may be experiencing. They frequently make excuses for their aches and pains and dread going to the doctor. Because of this, serious health problems can go undetected for many years and may lead to an early death. They detest exercise and would rather indulge in foods high in fat in sodium, increasing their risk of developing diabetes and hypertension as they age.

Finance
Those born on May 28 are typically wise in financial matters, accruing a substantial amount of wealth at a relatively young age. While this is a wonderful trait to have, these people also have the tendency to become too comfortable in their material wealth and may be inclined to take financial risks, such as routine gambling.

Career
People born on this day are dedicated to their work and are devoted to putting in long hours at the office. Because of this, they are often recognized for their talents and have a tendency to receive promotions on a regular basis. They are not afraid to take credit for their work-related achievements and are also not afraid to own up to their mistakes (which rarely occur in the first place). These people often make effective stock brokers and accountants, as they are detail oriented and enjoy working with numbers.

Relationships, Marriage & Children
People born on this day are loners and do not possess a strong desire to build personal relationships. Their marriages are usually ones of convenience and they prefer to settle into a daily routine with their spouse. They will stay in a marriage, even if it is an unhappy one, since a divorce would be considered a failure in their eyes. They don't feel the need to have children and would prefer the company of a low maintenance pet, such as a cat or fish.
