Life Insurance Tax Shelters (LITS) offer an option that will not only permit your money to grow Tax-Free, but if structured properly, will permit you to access the funds without tax ramifications. Each insurance company has their own name for their unique plan, but the plans basically operate like this. You participate in an insurance plan that also permits you to deposit money into it. The amount deposited can be very flexible and may change as you desire over the years, however, you will always be required to participate in the insurance coverage. Our recommendation is that you subscribe to the lowest "decreasing term" possible. You want your actual insurance premiums to be the lowest necessary to keep the plan active, because you want to take the extra money and deposit it within the plan as an investment. [2008] - Dwayne Daku

The vertical horizontal filter (VHF) indicator measures the strength of a market's trend by comparing the difference between the highest and lowest values during a given period (P) to the cumulative day-to-day change. A higher value indicates a stronger trend, and a lower value indicates a weaker trend. The indicator does not measure directions, but simply the strength of the trend, in whichever direction it is moving.  [2009] - James DiGeorgia

Time and time again anxiety usually emerges as the number one cause of insomnia. Many people worry that if they "don't get to sleep sooner" their productivity will suffer at work or they'll feel exceedingly bad during the day. Their anxiety about the consequences of not sleeping ratchets up to fear, and before long, they're in such a state of vigilance that they're as far from sleep as it's possible to be. But bad sleep is much more dangerous in your mind than it's in real life. Just because you got little to no sleep the night before doesn't mean you can't handle the next day. I'm not saying your day will be chocolates and roses. I just don't think you'll end up being truly dysfunctional. [2017] - W. Chris Winter
