If you ever suffered from a bout of insomnia, you know how incredibly debilitating it can be.
But imagine doing it for over 11 days?
In 1963, 17-year-old Randy Garnder did just that. And he did it intentionally.
He was closely monitored by a doctor and the experience proved valuable in the study of sleep deprivation.
Usually, there’s something in the back of our minds that keeps us awake.
A worry, a fear, a concern.
And it’s often about one of three things: health, family, or money.
Since I’ve counseled people about money for a long time, I’ve learned that fear usually boils down to this: “Will I outlive what I have?”
It’s a valid concern – and one that has led to a lot of serious mistakes.
Since fewer and fewer people have pension plans, the onus of making their money last is on them.
If you’ve never put your financial plan through a stress test to determine how long it will last, then I encourage you to arrange a brief call with me to learn how this process works. I’m confident it can be a big step toward getting a good night’s sleep.
