The purpose of this book is not only to advise persons with MS, but also to help all people, including children. There is no benefit to looking back or looking down. Look up and look forward to the future. Learn as much as you can and the benefits will follow. Almost all diseases are caused by either a lack of something or too much of a bad thing. Life is all about choices, and the more knowledge you have, the better choices you can make. There are many things a person can do to improve his or her health. Always strive to improve your health. What you choose to put in your body controls how you feel and determines how long you will live. Life is a process and both actions and non-actions have consequences. Try to make smart choices. Smoking, drinking alcohol, and unhealthy eating are all wrong choices. Supposedly, each cigarette takes one hour off your life expectancy and has been proven to be an extremely high cause of cancer. Eating to satisfy your taste with sweets is not healthy for your body, and the fact that over 50 percent of the American population is overweight is good proof of this. Alcohol destroys your liver. If you want to live a long and healthy life then you need to take control. When you are young, you think you are invincible and nothing can bother or harm you. When you get older, you wonder if all the crazy things you did were worth it. Life only passes you by one time so make it a good and healthy life. You need to be responsible for your own health. Never give up on turning your health around. A journey of a thousand miles begins with just one step.

This technical note presents Malta’s risk analysis related aspects of financial system. A comprehensive set of stress tests and interconnectedness analyses were conducted to assess the resilience of Malta’s financial system and shed light on potential vulnerabilities, complementing the euro area Financial Sector Assessment Program. Key metrics suggest that the banking sector is in good health, but challenges exist. Banks are well-capitalized, liquidity is ample, and profitability has been healthy. The solvency stress tests indicate that the banking sector remains resilient, with vulnerabilities limited to a few small banks. The banking sector appears resilient to liquidity pressures, but some small banks are vulnerable to more severe events. The interconnectedness analysis suggests that contagion risk through interlinkages from within the Maltese financial sector is currently higher and more wide-spread than contagion risk through cross-border interbank exposures. Monitoring and conducting periodic analysis of cross-border linkages, and further enhancing the existing inter-sectoral linkages analysis, is expected to provide an early warning before contagion risks accumulate.
