Investment Ideas and The Personal Financial World
In this post, I debate with a blogger who is a self-proclaimed “Free Trader” / Libertarian. While I am all for market-based capitalism in our American economy, I believe that the innate greed that drives human economic behavior must be managed to some degree. Regulations are important, especially in the area of money supply and banking. Money is the lifeblood of an economy and must be carefully protected by the national authorities to whom we entrust that responsibility. My opponent calls regulation “Central Planning”, which is a big overstatement. I make the argument that our current economic crisis is due to a complete breakdown of that care which comes from prudent regulation. This is now what we need to repair. Please read on:

How to Handle Anger During Stressful Situations
When you are entering a stressful situation that is almost sure to
cause anger, your objective is to prevent that anger.
Do say to yourself
• What do I have to do?
• How many ways are there to deal with this?
• There may not be a need to argue. I’ll take three deep
breaths, collect my thoughts, and relax.
• A sense of humor will be very helpful.
Don’t say to yourself
• I have to win.
• I’m going to get angry.
• There is going to be an argument.
• I’m ready for him or them.
In seeking a fair resolution to a confrontation, make an effort to
use neutral, non accusatory phrases, even if you feel deep inside the
need to accuse your adversary.
Do say to yourself and the others
• Let’s go at this one point at a time.
• Could we both be right here?
• Could a cooperative effort work? Perhaps we’re both right.
• Arguments only lead to arguments. Let’s focus on what is
right here.
• Let’s work together constructively.
• I’m not going to get angry.
Don’t say to yourself and the others
• I’m all tensed up.
• This makes me mad.
• You’ve got it all wrong.
• They are against me.
• She started this argument.
• I’ll show him.
If the situation has become very tense, make use of some damage-
limiting techniques.
Do say to yourself
• Anger’s a good signal; now it’s time to get in control and
help myself.
• I’m starting to tense up; time to slow down, take a few
deep breaths.
• What do I want to get out of this?
• I do not need to prove myself.
• I’ll try and contain this.
• What he says may not matter at all.
• There have to be some good parts to this. What are they?
Don’t say to yourself
• He can’t do that.
• I’ll get even.
• I’ll not let him get away with that.
• I’ll take it right to the top.
• He can’t say that to me.
• This will be awful.

How to Deal with Stress
Whether stress is internal or external, there are things we can do to
gain control.
1. Don’t try to relieve the frustration caused by stress by
creating more stress. Don’t drink, snack, smoke, or use
chemicals. Tranquilizers will never prevent high blood
pressure!
2. Maintain fitness. A conditioned body copes well with stress.
3. Mental conditioning for external stress is equally important.
Prepare for the worst eventuality and decide how you would
handle it. Once you’re ready, what actually occurs will
be easy.

Six Steps to Controlling Anger
1. Take deep breaths. Meditate. Practice yoga. Play computer games.
2. Watch your caffeine and alcohol intake. Caffeine promotes anxiety and
irritability. Alcohol and drugs can spur you to act out aggressions.
3. Give yourself extra time when doing things; allow for things going wrong.
4. Remind yourself of the impact anger has on your health. Tirades boost blood
pressure, trigger premature heart attacks, and lead to ulcers, strokes, and
digestive problems. Besides, it never gets you what you want.
5. Don’t be so easily offended by another person’s actions. Where is it written you
can’t be cut off on the freeway? Recognize we’re all fallible; practice
forgiveness.
6. Seek out professional help. Resources include the American Psychological
Association, which has an online brochure, “Controlling Anger Before It
Controls You.”
