Over the last few months, at least a dozen people have sought my advice about their finances amid the current housing and financial meltdown. It’s been a startling experience. With their personal finances tumbling and despair setting in, these folks have been desperate for solutions.
The problem is I don’t know any more than they do about the complexities of the current crisis. I’m a psychiatrist, not a financial adviser.
But I do have a sense of why many are turning to us in search of answers: This economic turmoil is causing overwhelming stress and anxiety.
