A Confidence Gap in Women
There is a confidence gap when it comes to women investing in a retirement portfolio. Women are not sure about their ability to invest so they tend to take a more passive approach in financial matters. This is the wrong way to look at the situation because women already have 2 things against them, compared to their male counterparts. First, women make on an average of 20% less income than a man doing the same job. In addition to the wage gap, women generally live longer than men.
When a woman doesn’t take the full financial picture into consideration, she is neglecting her future financial security because she will have less money to invest with a longer period to protect. It’s a hard situation to be in but it doesn’t have to be that way. How does a woman fix the situation so she can have the needed money to take care of herself?
