Those born in the year of the snake say very little and have tremendous wisdom. They don't need to worry about money and are quite vain, selfish and don't usually share. But they can feel bad for people and try to help out those who aren't as fortunate. They are calm on the outside, yet they are passionate inside. They are good looking but can have problems in marriage due to being fickle and mendacious.
