Your Finances
I wonder if taking charge of your financial future has been as daunting for you as it has been for me? It certainly has been a "learn as you go" process and at times painful. A shift in society came in the late 60's, early 70's, with the birth control pill. For the first time in history, women had more control over their bodies and were able to make choices that affected their own lives. The down side, of course, was that along with this freedom came more divorce. Women were thrust on their own to fend for themselves, often without the skills they needed or financial support for their children.
One of the biggest mysteries to me today is why woman that have become well educated and have reached a high level of expertise in their jobs are willing to leave their finances to someone else to manage. When you consider what happened to scores of Enron and Worldcom employees, it would be wise to keep a close check on your portfolio.
