解析
本题考查对文章细节信息的理解。解题思路是仔细阅读文章，找到与题目中“money and the economy may cause stress”原因相关的内容，然后将各选项与原文进行对比分析。
- 文章中明确提到“Money and the economy may cause stress because we have to devote a lot of brain power to making financial decisions”，意思是金钱和经济可能会导致压力，因为我们必须投入大量的脑力来做财务决策。
- 选项A：文章未提及人们需要找到赚足够钱的方法，所以A选项不符合原文，排除。
- 选项B：该选项“People have to use brain power to make financial decisions”与原文中提到的导致压力的原因一致，所以B选项正确。
- 选项C：“thinking about paying the mortgage”只是文中列举的财务决策的一个例子，并非导致压力的根本原因，所以C选项不准确，排除。
- 选项D：“saving money”同样是文中列举的财务决策的一个方面，不是导致压力的核心原因，所以D选项也不正确，排除。
