While hardly a problem that is restricted to people in the medical fields, simply based on the number of physicians and dentists I have worked with over the past few years, it seems their easy access to the drugs and or ability to write prescriptions is a growing...

The way 99.9% of life insurance companies treat people with bipolar disorder drives me nuts. I’m not talking about an insurance company that fully underwrites an application and finds out something really sketchy in a person’s history. What slays me is...

If you make $300,000 or less then this post is probably not for you, unless you can envision a time when your income is higher. Traditional disability income insurance will pay, at most, 65% of your income as a benefit, theoretically what you would net post taxes....
