Summary: "Women now occupy every walk of corporate life and are, in growing cases, the breadwinner of the family. Yet the one area where women are not thriving is in the management of their own growing portfolios. The 2011 Sullivan Trust Study reveals that women now yield unprecedented economic and financial clout--making up nearly two-thirds of the U.S. work force and frequently out-earning their spouses. Yet many advisors overlook women, still speaking to them primarily through their partners or husbands, if at all. It's time for all this to change. Nancy Tengler has the investing experience and here, reaches out to women in a credible way to help begin the process of change for this community. For women, finding an adviser who speaks their language is key. Presentations that focus on a portfolio's return, investment style, market capitalization, and performance compared with a benchmark tend to resonate with men, while women prefer a more personalized conversation that focuses on goals. This book introduces women to wealth accumulation strategies that can be implemented with success. Tengler utilizes her successful career as an investment professional to reveal techniques to identify and purchase stock in high-quality investments. By providing the tools necessary to identify sound managers and their strategies, the reader will develop both the expertise to invest directly and through well-managed bond funds. This technique is unique to The Women's Guide to Successful Investing and is especially important for investors to master in these volatile markets."-- Provided by publisher.
