Stress from change in financial circumstances

Problem: More money makes others want things from me
Solution: Before you make any major financial decisions, wait at lest six months. That means don't spend any money from your newfound wealth until the shock of it has worn off and you can make decisions objectively.

Problem: Less money makes me worried about the future
Solution: Find a way to plan for your future. Whether you go out to look for a new job or you realign the money you already have into a retirement account, you need to take action when you're faced with financial trouble. Instead of feeling out of control, get out and start finding ways to get your money back in order.

Problem: More money makes me worried that I will lose it all.
Solution: Instead of worrying about how you will use your money, talk to a financial adviser that is trained in handling large amounts of money. Since he or she isn't emotionally invested in the money, they can give you objective advice as to how to invest your money so that it's available in the future for whatever reason you might need it.

Problem: Less money makes me worried that I won't be able to pay the bills this month.
Solution: Take some time right now to find out how much money you have and where you might be able to save money. If that means cancelling unnecessary frivolities, then do so. This is the time where you start to assess what's necessary and what's not adding to your financial stability.

Money can be a powerful motivator in our lives - both for stress and for peace. When you take the time to be non-emotional about your financial situation, you will always make the right decision. Whenever your financial situation changes, sit down for a moment and write down all of your concerns. Then, write down ways that you can deal with these concerns alongside your list. This puts you in control immediately of what is happening in your life.
