The reality is that women today are, on average, living longer than men, and at the same time earning less money. Combine that startling statistic with society's high divorce rates, and the chances that many women will experience some financial hardship during their lives is almost certain. It has never been more imperative that women take control of every aspect of their financial lives and this upbeat, introductory guide is the perfect way to start!

Much more than simply an introduction to investing, this book will also help you to:

  • realistically evaluate your net worth so you can properly plan for retirement
  • understand the true cost of credit
  • evaluate the bewildering array of financial services currently available
  • choose the correct type and amount of insurance
  • understand proper estate planning and much more!
