Have you ever wondered why you set financial goals and don’t achieve them?

If you’re like most people, you’re dealing with financial stress everyday. In all my years of counseling people, I can honestly say it’s not your fault. You have been programmed to fail financially.

The school system failed you, the financial industry is not helping you and social media and other media outlets are forcing you like hypnosis to do things that are financially destructive. You are literally stuck.

And this problem is literally killing you because this problem is a matter of life or death. I really mean that.

Let me explain, the research is clear, people’s money problems are THE #1 cause of stress in society, and chronic stress is linked to the six leading causes of death: heart disease, cancer, lung ailments, accidents, cirrhosis of the liver and suicide.

Most people don’t realize this, but more than 75 percent of all physician office are for stress-related ailments and complaints.

Stress can affect your brain, cause blood sugar imbalances, decrease muscle tissue, raise blood pressure, reduce your immunity, push people into overeating and increase fat deposits around your abdomen, you see there’s an increased risk of substance abuse, elevated levels of irritably,  nervousness, migraines, lack of sleep, stomach ulcers, back pain, lack of motivation, fatigue, overwhelmed, and depression.  I could just keep going.

So if stress is the leading cause of our most deadly diseases and people’s financial problems are the leading cause of stress, you would then surmise, that financial problems in our society are a leading cause of our most serious health issues.  – and most people don’t even know it’s happening.

They call stress the “The Silent Killer” because it it – and based on all the research, money is the source of it.   Do you see the connection and why I say this is a life or death issue?

All of this because people have been programmed to fail with their money – and the resources available do not work.  This is the missing piece.  This is what the financial industry and others have been missing all along.

And here’s the bigger problem - stress around money is unique in that it is a prolonged stress that rarely ceases to end. It just continues day in and day out. This is different from normal stress we deal with like, driving in traffic, taking an exam, giving a presentation, a job interview or that first date. Money stress has an endless prolonging effect that wears on your mind and body continuously.

Because of this prolonging effect, people are at an increased risk of a heart attack, stroke, and panic attacks and can increase the risk of depression, obesity, and risk of suicide?

Let’s not forget financial stress is the top reason people get divorced and relationships fall apart today.

And what does that lead to? That usually means more stress.

And the reality is this isn’t going to stop on its own.

And it’s not going to stop with the traditional methods and resources available today. Proof is in the numbers, and numbers show that people are getting worse.
