6 Financial Tips for Women
Several studies report that women have anxiety about money and lack confidence in their ability to manage
it. A 2017 study by Merrill Lynch found that only 52% of women say they are confident in managing investments, and one in four said they have not planned at all for their financial future. We offer six tips that women can use to take responsibility for their financial security.
1. Actively manage your own money.
Whether you are single or in a relationship, you should always be involved in decisions about your money at every stage in life. Active participation in managing your finances has many positives:
• It helps you weather a crisis more effectively;
• It prepares you to cope financially if you find yourself
suddenly single again;
• It prevents you from being a victim of a partner’s
poor financial decisions;
• It helps you optimize spending and savings habits.
