A major illness or some other unavoidable problem can cause people to fall short of their financial goals, but more often than not, long-standing barriers to dealing well with money are to blame. I've worked with more people who need to overcome significant obstacles in their attitudes and behaviors concerning money than those who just need a bit of sound financial advice.
