Husband Offers Solution for Handling Stress

In an issue of the AARP Bulletin, readers were asked to respond to the question: What's your strategy for coping with stress? The answers ranged from "eat a chocolate chip cookie" to "have a stiff drink." But Don Betz of Oakdale, Minnesota, offered his own unique solution. Every January 1st, Betz says, "I give my wife $1, and she worries about everything for both of us."

That is not the entirety of the plan. Betz added, "If someone else wants to be worry free, they can also send her a dollar."
