Health and Wealth
Health and Wealth are closely related. The language used in each area is somewhat unique and both areas suffer from the immediacy/pill popper syndrome. That is, we want a pill to ease the pain not a strategy to change longer term behavior. The key to each is having a trusted physician/advisor . Well, several studies that have come out since the passage of the Healthcare law estimate a physician shortage of up to 130,000 by 2025. This is a problem that can't be solved overnight given the 8-10 year schooling/training period for physicians. Big, big trouble ahead if we don't act quickly to reverse the trend.
