Going to the doctor is like going to Disneyworld

Going to the doctor is like going to Disneyworld

Going to the doctor is like going to Disneyworld. Even before you get there you know it’s going to be expensive and very old school.

Now that's how you prime people for debt.

The psyche wants to fly with Peter Pan to Neverland. There's a chance that people will even ruin their lives for that. It's only when the old men get to the doctor that they realise they're not little boys anymore.

The world changes when you find you don't need financial planning, but medical advice. But I guess you wear the same outfit to both.
