 Elevates Worry To An Art Form! ( nononotnevernonotnevernomore )
The Joy of Worry is a hilarious book that belongs on your bookshelf if you have been a lifelong worrier. The truth is that Ellis Weiner and Roz Chast have discovered that worry is not a useless exercise in negativity, but a mental state that can be mastered, and thereby "used to attain happiness, success, romance and fun!"
If you are a worrying pro (and who among us is not?) you've been sweating over health, success, finance, sex, driving and so much more. But if your worry has not been bringing you success, you've been doing it all wrong! (So, there's yet another thing to be worried about -- worry, itself!)
Enter Ellis Weiner, who wrote for National Lampoon and Roz Chast, New Yorker cartoonist, and you will be carefully guided to focus your worry, cultivate a refined sense of anxiety and elevate yourself to the well-deserved place you have coveted all those wasted years.
Worry is more pleasurable and profitable than we ever imagined, and this book is the key to worry wonderland!

 Reads like a Woody Allen screenplay ( unixmotifjavac )
Brilliant! Satirizes Worry Worts! I swear the author had spycameras in my parents home when I was growing up! Jewish people should especially relate to this book. Loved the diversified portfolio 50 different funds, 2% of total portfolio!
A must read for laughs!
