Being Financially Independent

For many women like you, being financially secure is an important goal, whether you’re married, single, working, or staying home with children. This financial independence can give you a certain level of empowerment and confidence about the future.

The truth is that women face different issues than men when it comes to investment management. Women today face a longer life expectancy than men by about six to eight years and typically spend fewer years in the workforce due to childcare. They also earn less in Social Security benefits and lower pay than men, despite recent gains in equality¹. Issues such as retirement, college planning for children, caring for an aging parent, and divorce and widowhood can make a big impact on a woman’s budget.

So how can you protect yourself and make sure your own financial goals are being met? What are your options for seeking help in getting your finances in order?
