Are you more worried about your portfolio and pocketbook than your health? After a year full of consumer credit crunches, mortgage foreclosures and a raft if home loans with higher payments from goofy loan terms, many Americans are set to be more concerned with their finances compared to their own health, according to a new study.

Countrywide Bank, which is in the throes of the subprime mortgage mess itself, said that 67 percent of surveyed adults nationally admitted to wanting to improve how financially fit they are in 2008, with just 57 percent saying that becoming physically fit is the main goal next year.

Who says you can't do both? Nothing does, and as long as you don't make hasty, uninformed decisions about your money or your health, you can do just fine.
