Oh come on, you could just as easily say the saver has other problems like OCD, depression, anxiety, and ASD.[/quote]

But the "savers problems" are not preventing them from paying the bills or retiring by 65.

Also, plenty of savers do not have any issues, they are just responsible adults.  However most over spenders do have other underlying issues that are driving the spending.
