Do you have a hard time falling asleep? Or do you bolt awake at 2 a.m. every morning with a racing heart? According to a recent survey from our research team at Ramsey Solutions, you’re probably worried about money. In the first quarter of 2021, Americans listed “personal finances” as their top stressor. In fact, one in three of us loses sleep over it.

That’s millions of hours of lost sleep across our neighborhoods, our cities, and our country.
