'TERRORISM FATIGUE' and OUR CULTURE OF GREED
Are you in denial, pretending to yourself that 9/11 and the ongoing threat of terrorism are not impacting your life? Or are you suffering from 'terrorism fatigue'? Or both? Whether you realize it or not, our family life, love life, work life and all other aspects of our lives have been irreparably altered by this seemingly endless threat. Our financial lives have been impacted, as well, including the recession and our growing culture of greed as we have adopted a 'live for today' mentality. One way this manifests is by the increasingly ruthless betrayals of family members, friends and professionals taking bites out of our assets and inheritances. Today's guest, Katherine Steel, author of Trust Me: Every Baby Boomer's Nightmare, recounts true stories of greed that will make you want to hide under the covers... and then get up and take control.
