Hi,<\/p>\n

How’s it going?<\/p>\n

It’s snowing again where I live. It’s going
to be really hard to get around this morning.<\/p>\n

So I am going to have to take off rather
early and make this quick.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I got several really angry emails
from some people with bipolar disorder.
Why were they mad? Well they said that
I basically unfairly say people with
bipolar disorder can’t handle money
well.<\/p>\n

I never said that at all. What I have
said is that when people go into
bipolar episodes, they can spend money
they normally would never ever spend.<\/p>\n

For some reason, there are many supporters
and people with bipolar disorder that don’t believe
this.<\/p>\n

I don’t know why? I have heard so many stories
about how bipolar has wrecked someone’s finances.<\/p>\n

I lost a ton of money from bipolar disorder
over the years.<\/p>\n

I personally know people who have lost $50,000,
$100,000, $250,000, and more than
$500,000.<\/p>\n

I remember this one guy calling me about 2
years ago. He was in California. He was on
my list and wanted to get my how to marry
someone with bipolar disorder course.<\/p>\n

We talked for a while. He told me that he was
a millionaire (he wasn’t arrogant it just
came up in conversation) from real estate
and that he had worked really hard to
make something of himself. I was really
happy for him.<\/p>\n

He was marrying someone with bipolar
disorder. He said she was doing
great but he just wanted to get my information
just to read up on bipolar disorder before
he got married.<\/p>\n

I warned him. I said, make sure you
put systems in place to protect your money.
I actually then asked him to grab a pen
and that I was going to give him a mini
seminar and that this would save him
a lot of money in the future.<\/p>\n

He said, “no thanks, she is great with
money. She never overspends.” He laughed
and said, “actually, I overspend and maybe
I should protect myself from myself.”<\/p>\n

He thought it was funny. I urged him
that this was serious and to heed my warning
and to setup the systems. I told him the
worst that would happen is that he would
have systems in place that don’t cost anything
and nothing would happen. He would have only
spent some time setting them up and that’s
it.<\/p>\n

He kept saying no. I could tell that I think
he felt that if he setup the systems he would
not be trusting his wife. I think he thought
that setting up the systems would mean he
didn’t believe his wife’s bipolar disorder
we okay.<\/p>\n

I then let it go. I was thinking in my head,
“Geeze this guy is in trouble.”<\/p>\n

Anyway about 7 months went by. I got a call
from another lady that lived in Texas. She had
told me that her son had “run through” more
than $350,000 and she was dead broke.<\/p>\n

I didn’t even have to ask how it happen. Probably
the same way it happen with my mom. It just happens.
Anyway, I didn’t want to rub salt in the woman’s
wounds. She wanted to start a business to
make money to make up for all that had been lost.
I gave her a number of ideas.<\/p>\n

Okay then a month later after this woman called,
I got a call from the real estate guy. He called
and sounded terrible. He was really sad. I kind
of forgot who he was because I talk to so many
people. He told me he was filing bankruptcy and
his wife had ruined his c.redit, and gone
through over $1 million of his money. She had
also taken out loans in his name. It was a total
mess.<\/p>\n

His wife had gone into a “super episode” he said
and that he felt stupid because he didn’t listen
to me. He was yelling at himself. I calmed him
down and told him that he was young, like my
age and that he could bounce back. I spent a lot
of time giving him a plan.<\/p>\n

I had his number and would call to check in. He
was really depressed all the time and I tried
to make him feel better. One day his phone
was turned off and never turned back on again.
I have no idea what happen to him. It was really
sad.<\/p>\n

I could go on and on. But I am sure you get
the idea.<\/p>\n

Here’s the thing. Bipolar disorder is a mood
disorder. It affects the way a person thinks and
feels. If a person goes into an episode, he\/she
can do stuff they normally would not do. One
thing they can do is spend money. It takes a life
time to build a savings but it only take a day to
spend it all. It’s kind of amazing. <\/p>\n

This is what can happen with bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n

This is what I HIGHLY recommend setting
up systems to protect your money.<\/p>\n

All my courses below: <\/p>\n

SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?
Visit:
http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/a><\/p>\n

HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?
Visit:
http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/a><\/p>\n

have these systems in them. I teach it from
a to z. I think I am the only person that does.<\/p>\n

When I talk about money and bipolar disorder,
people think I am “out of my mind.” I have
had people call me and said, “why do you have
a cd called money and bipolar disorder, is
that a mistake?”<\/p>\n

If you don’t have systems in place, you need to
set them up right away. Don’t wait until
it’s too late. <\/p>\n

And, if nothing ever happens, nothing is
lost. Meaning, if you setup the systems,
your loved one never goes into an episode
forever, nothing is lost. You just have
your money protected. But you need
to do something. TODAY. Don’t wait.<\/p>\n

I would really appreciate if people post
some stories of what can happen. People
with bipolar disorder who are newly diagnosed
and new bipolar supporters many times don’t
believe this kind of thing is possible until
it happens.<\/p>\n

If you have a story, post it below.<\/p>\n

I have to run and get ready. Catch you tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Your Friend,<\/p>\n

Dave<\/p>\n
