SHOULD WOMEN WORK?




Hello,

Trying to answer the question should women work without relying on your culture, experiences and values takes research and willingness to learn so putting aside all previously held beliefs, extensive research on the subject matter began. Here is my finding:

Sexism comes to play when the same question is asked for both genders and the answers given are different.  For example, the answer to ‘Should women work?’ and ‘should men work?’ should be same. (Further reading)

Women who find themselves in the work place do not assist in bridging the gap between male and females present in the work place and would more readily give males a chance at work than their female counterpart. (Further reading)

WEALTH PRESERVATION AND WEALTH TRANSFER (SERIES FINALE)

Hello,
Wealth preservation and transfer will be the final post on the taking control of your finances as a woman series. I have confirmation that our resource person will do us the honour of writing on wealth preservation and transfer and I am eager to have her point of view but in the meanwhile, here is mine.

Wealth preservation includes all the decisions taken and actions geared towards ensuring acquired or created wealth is not lost. This can be done by reducing investment charges and other charges which deplete your funds, also by investing in extremely low risk instruments and ventures.

Quick reminder, we have examined Basic survival needs of a woman, Saving as a tool in financial planning, Cutting down cost, differentiated between savings and investment while emphasizing that they are not one and the same, wealth creation where we advised you to increase your source of income, in an earlier post series we have suggested you start with education and mentioned that it did not have to cost you (you may wish to see how HERE), wealth management and also talked on what to do when you have fallen off track with financial prudence.

Wealth transfer can mean the passing on of wealth from one to another

WHAT DO I DO? MY FINANCIAL PRUDENCE JUST SUFFERED A SETBACK


Hello,
Wealth preservation and transfer will be the final post on the taking control of your finances as a woman series. I have contacted a lady who is very passionate about wealth preservation and transfer; pray she guests here so there can be an exchange of knowledge.
It is important to state that every post in this series is very important if you are to take control of your finances. Please read all 10 of them if you haven’t done so.
Also, it is important to share these posts with friends and family so they can encourage you in this journey, join you if they will or just be available to discourage you from splurging. 

WHAT DO I DO? MY FINANCIAL PRUDENCE JUST SUFFERED A SETBACK.
If you have been with me on this journey of taking control of your finances, you will agree with me that it has led you to the place of financial prudence. I was glad to receive positive feedback from you especially concerning the ‘practical ways to get out of debt’ and ‘Savingsas a tool in taking control of your finances’. Thank you.

You may have been written out your expenses for the previous month, drawn a budget from there, and examined every item of your expenses and effected the desired changes but one or two months, even ten months down the line, your ‘financial control’ weakens and you splurge in a moment of indiscretion, What do you do after?

PRACTICAL WAY TO GET OUT OF DEBT

Hello,
We have all being in one form of debt. We may have become indebted by favours done us or properties volunteered to us. We may even have been indebted for a few hours, days or months. The most important rules for being indebted can be found here (If you must be indebted, do it right).

This post focuses on the burden of having a debt to pay. If you had read the ‘previous post’ and followed it through, you may have learnt one or two things. If not, this one is for you.
