"pay what you can" option for January 2009
December 22, 2008
Just announced: in a devoted effort to help
those in need during this harsh economic
climate, Paul Radkowski, CEO and program
creator of the Life Recovery Program (
www.liferecoveryprogram.com )
makes a radical decision to put people
before profits for the entire month of
January 2009.
With this first time ever "pay-what-you-can"
option for online recovery support - The
Life Recovery Program hopes to have a
positive impact on persons who are suffering
from severe stress, addiction or depression
issues, (ranging from alcohol and drugs to
over eating, gambling and anger), post
holiday season and into the new year - that
would not otherwise be able to afford to get
help.
The American Psychological Association did a
survey which revealed that 80 per cent of
people have high anxiety (Nov 16, 2008)
about their personal finances and the
economy and it’s affecting emotional and
physical health.
The Boston Globe reports that addiction
specialists warn that stress from the
economic slump and the holidays could lead
to increased use of alcohol and other drugs
because "when companies cut back, workers
feel more pressured and their drinking or
drug use increases… and the temptation to
drink or use drugs is even greater during
the holiday season because of stress."
(Boston Globe 120802)
In November 2008 mental health professionals
in some regions report a huge surge in the
case of stress, addiction, depression and
suicide linked to the worsening economy by
as much as 30%. This increased demand for
service is forcing more people to look for
alternative support (Daily Herald, Nov. 20,
2008) as therapeutic demand is exceeding the
supply. The Life Recovery Program is an
alternative service available to immediately
fill that need.
People are entering into the holiday season
already burdened with tremendous debt which
means higher financial stress, resulting in
increased addiction and an increase in so
called "therapeutic" spending. If ONE
company can help reduce these numbers and
provide value beyond recognition, (in terms
of support and therapy) – then Paul
Radkowski "believes that it should be his!"
Effective January 01, 2009 - January 31
(midnight PST), 2009 - anyone who visits
www.liferecoveryprogram.com and chooses to
take advantage of this offer will be able to
pay any dividend of a ten dollar amount for
access to three months of his online
program, instead of the usual fee costing
the client an investment of several hundred
dollars.
When the question arose as to how The Life
Recovery Program can "afford" to do
this....Paul Radkowski's answer was simple:
"How can we afford NOT to! The people we
care about the most - are being hit the
hardest with this downward spiral of the
economy.
In Canada, the Economist reports that close
to 70,000 jobs have been lost across the
country within the last year (Oct 9, 2008).
The U.S. Dept of labor reported that job
losses in the last 3 months alone have
totalled close to 700,000 (Nov 7, 2008). It
is expected that these massive layoffs and
downward economic trend will continue in the
upcoming months and turbulent years to come.
Even President-elect, Barack Obama says
times are quite difficult for the average
person and so those of us in positions of
power "need to make sacrifices" and lead by
example for those who are less fortunate."

Walters}
Paul Radkowski says, "The Life Recovery
Program is primarily delivered via the
internet - which makes it easy for ANY ONE
with their own computer and internet access
to take advantage of - and it keeps overhead
low for us. We can afford to take a minor
hit during these times if it means that we
can help others less fortunate than us."
