Publisher's Synopsis
A man is not a financial plan. So says investor and entrepreneur Kim Kiyosaki. Australian financial adviser Helen Baker couldn't agree more. In On Your Own Two Feet: Steps Towards Financial Independence, Helen Baker blends the financial wisdom gained in her years as an accredited financial adviser with emotional awareness of how ages, stages and experiences in women's lives influence money matters and that all present unique challenges for which there is no 'one size fits all' solution. Helen's goal is for women to be the best they can, including financially. That, she knows, comes with control and certainty. Both require knowledge. Within these pages, she reveals: - five financial fundamentals no woman can get away without - how doing smart things early over a long time minimises risk while growing wealth - the 10 biggest mistakes women make in divorce settlements - survival tips for redundancy-or when two becomes three in a household - understanding aged care - how to handle an inheritance - or set one up so that your wishes truly are seen through - and much, much more. On your own two feet is for Australian women of all ages: mothers, sisters, grandmothers, daughters and girlfriends. No woman's financial literacy is complete without the sensible tips and case studies presented in this easy-to-read format.
