As a family financial expert for over 35 years, I’ve seen women decide to push off handling their finances until they become familiar with the money terms they’ve heard.
So, when do you roll-up with your phone or tablet at night and say, “Hey, I want to look up the term ‘prospectus’ and see what that means?” Let me take a guess: “Never.”
If you want to learn some important financial terms, go for it. Grow and be confident with your money awareness to design and manage your financial life.
Thank you Neale. This is an area where I need a lot of help. I still feel overwhelmed by financial jargon but it’s time to get over that!
Remember the saying “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” – investment terms are just words!
Completely agree! So important for young women to become financial savvy and remain financially independent from the time they enter the workforce throughout their careers and lives.
