Stressed About College Funds — or Just Your College Kid? Shoot Both Into Orbit

let-worries-go.jpg

NorthWestern has expanded — or further limited, depending on one’s viewpoint — its Wreck Your Worries campaign. On Let Your Worries Go, the result of a partnership with Firstborn Multimedia (sacrifice yours today!), users can select from a limited set of personified worries and shoot them into orbit, launch them into the sky, propel them over land, or bury them underwater.

When you’re done watching your self-imposed antagonists glide peacefully away, the Northwestern Mutual Foundation will commit to donate to a cause that addresses your worry. The more times your worry is picked between now and December 31, the more money they’ll put toward it.

Here’s a worry-easing suggestion. How about you guys fund our retirement? With social security shot down, we could use the love.
