"Women have more money--and power--than ever before. So why are we still so conflicted, and unsure, of what or how to deal with it? What do you want from your money? More of it, sure. But even women who are making more than ever are still not comfortable with or confident about their money. So, what do you really want? Independence. Choices. The knowledge that it will last as long--if not longer--than you do. And, oh yes, less stress ... much less stress. In [this book], Jean Chatzky charts a three-part plan to attain this joyful, purpose-filled life with the resources you have right now. Through a series of HerMoney Happy Hour discussions and one-on-one conversations, the always engaging, empathetic (and experienced) money girlfriend dives deep and gets women to get candid about the one subject we still never talk about. Then, with help from the world's top economists, behaviorists, psychologists, financial planners, and attorneys, Jean opens the door to help you achieve your goals. Whether you're looking to: invest with more confidence; get paid what you`re worth; understand why you are the way you are with money; start your own business; buy real estate; raise independent, confident kids (and help them launch); help your aging parents; leave a legacy; or simply take a little more joy in how you use your money, [this book] has the answers. As one Happy Hour participant put it: "This feels revolutionary.""--Dust jacket. |
