It's a real addiction? Are power and money intoxicating and addictive while under their influence?

Answer

Like any intoxicating substances, wealth and power can control and eventually destroy the lives of those suffering from the addiction, as addicts and other affected or controlled by the disease of addiction. 

This article, For The Love of Money, and book of the same name, both by recovering Wall Street wealth addict, author Sam Polk, illustrates much of what an addict to wealth and power may experience while suffering the impact of the addiction and seeking recovery.  

Resources for sufferers will be available in our 2020 edition of the WAPA Guide, due out this coming election cycle. As always, WAPA Guide orders are always anonymous and free.
