IRS Problems Can Hurt More Than Your Financial Life
Are you worried about your IRS problem? Losing sleep? Join the club. I hear that a lot. People will sit up at night and let their IRS problems eat away at them, night after night…causing them to lose sleep.Is your IRS problem worth sacrificing your health…or your life? Stress can be a killer. Literally. Stress can lead to heart attack, hypertension, stroke, cancer, diabetes, depression, obesity, eating disorders, substance abuse, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, memory loss, autoimmune diseases (e.g. lupus), insomnia, thyroid problems and even infertility.
Procrastinating and hoping that your IRS problems will just go away is causing you a boatload of stress…But chances are that you may not have considered what that stress is doing to your body on a long-term basis.
What about the effects on your marriage? Numerous studies have shown that the money problems are the #1 source of arguments in marriage. Money problems caused by credit card debt, loss of a job, unforeseen expenses – you name it...all of these can be stressful on a marriage. But if you toss an IRS problem into the mix, you may have a recipe for disaster.
The IRS has more far-reaching power than any collection agency could. So if money problems cause arguments, IRS problems can cause absolute catastrophe. Divorce follows as a result, it introduces another whole host of problems emotionally and financially.
You have one chance at life (as far as I know…) don’t waste another minute worrying about the IRS. The average life expectancy of an American male is 73 years. If you live this long, and you spend 5 years worrying about the IRS – that means a full 6% of your lifetime was spent in the shadow of an IRS problem.
That’s too long. Plus, considering the fact that stress and sleep deprivation could actually shorten your lifespan…that 6% number could be greater. If you die at 60 and you spent 5 years worrying about the IRS, that’s over 8% of your lifetime. Don’t you have better things to think about? Of course you do. Although you may have forgotten them in a sea of worry…at one time you had dreams & goals – things you wanted to do in this life before you die.
