Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History has taught us that when women move together the nation often follows. WOMEN, WEALTH and WISDOM; Unleash The Fire Within To A Life Of Purpose opens a door to financial freedom like suffrage opened the door to new political powers. In the post birth control rights era, personal finance is now the final feminine frontier. So why are women today failing at personal finances? Why are today's women more and more at risk of slipping into a financial abyss than men? How can this be prevented? What does this mean for you and your spouse today? WOMEN, WEALTH and WISDOM; Unleash The Fire Within To A Life Of Purpose is unique because it unites concepts of women and wealth with living with a purpose. Steve Wightman explains important decisions that divide those unable to find fulfilling lives rich in prosperity, love, and purpose from those who do. Peppered with personal anecdotes, the book reveals sixteen smartest things women do in a lifetime. He understands women today are often confused and uncertain about their financial security. He addresses this concern with clarity and purpose by stating vital steps women need to take today. Financial planning, he argues, is far more important than planning a wedding or a family reunion because these events are just drops in a bucket contrasted against an entire life. It's about life transitioning and survival today. Financial planning is life planning. It's about what you are and what you want your life to say about you now and tomorrow! After more than seventeen years of practice as a fee-only certified financial planner® serving families including women in transition to single life, Wightman looks at what men know and women often don't and how these distinctions create a wealth divide. One woman in severe financial distress taught him a vital lesson. She telephoned him and said: “I have a loaded gun pointed at my head and I'm just calling to say goodbye.” Like someone who's survived a lightning strike, Wightman felt compelled to write this book because he clearly understands that financial well-being is linked to physical and mental health. Moreover, this connection to mind and wallet is also linked to the health of our society and our nation's economy. It means the difference between being a government revenue supporter or a dependent. Intended as a 50+ woman's guidebook to a life's destination all her own, this book is also serves anyone who desires a clear path to a life of personal power, prosperity and purpose. Once you open WOMEN, WEALTH and WISDOM; Unleash The Fire Within To A Life Of Purpose you also open the possibility of a new life of purpose, power and prosperity. Now you can put an oracle in your very own hands. Get in on the conversation and you'll never again be alone or lost in the scary world of personal finance. The future belongs to those who seize opportunity. Don't let this one pass you by. Live well and prosper. A well planned life is an extraordinary one.

Book excerpt: Written as Lightning in a bottle to assist American women age 50 or older seeking financial independence and a better life, Women, Wealth & Wisdom; Unleash the Fire Within to a Life of Purpose blends life and financial planning into one practical guide. Having our own money wisdom trumps family acrimony. If divorce, addictions and suicide are rooted in financial woes it is clear that finances affect our mental and consequently our physical health. By conquering the final frontier, personal finances, women can transcend to a higher intellectual state – one of wisdom and its shadow benefit, enduring vitality and power.Women, Wealth and Wisdom: Unleash the Fire Within to a Life of Purpose is about being psychologically and fiscally prepared for the complex financial world of tomorrow. For example, retirement security is the grave concern of Americans today. Millions of Baby boomers go on Social Security retirement pensions every year. Most are ill prepared for their heavy burdens of escalating costs of health and long term care on one hand and they fear they'll outlive their meager savings on the other. The latter becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy because most boomers take the lowest offer on Social Security's table, age 62 retirements. Half of this group, women, have triple worries: First, lower Social Security benefits than men; second, higher longevity will increase their risk of being bankrupt and finally relative financial illiteracy coupled with surviving their spouses often steals the very wealth that may have carried them through. Based on research and anecdotes of working with women for more than a decade as a fee-only NAPFA Registered Financial Adviser, Wightman's new second edition leads readers to clearly see that we all have a life of choices and that the direction we take at each juncture define our destinies. These very choices make the difference between prosperity or poverty, vitality or vanity, health or hospitals. With little-known tools, strategies and resources well tested in the real world by a now retired financial adviser, Wightman shares his hitherto secret solutions and inspires his readers to seek free fee-only financial advice via weekly free conference calls moderated by Certified Financial Planner licensed Advisers and access a life of power, purpose and prosperity; a life now of fire and focus.

Download or read book The Seven Pearls of Financial Wisdom written by Carol Pepper and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By two leading financial experts: an essential guide for every woman who wants to build, preserve, and enjoy her wealth. Women control more than half of all wealth in the U .S., and in 2011 held the majority of jobs in the workforce. As women's earnings, freedom and influence increase, the old sequential patterns of education, marriage, motherhood, and retirement no longer apply. A woman may set up a foundation in her twenties—when she sells her first company, support her family as the primary breadwinner in her thirties, start a new career in her sixties and remarry in her seventies. Today women cycle repeatedly but not in any traditional order through these stages: wealth building, romance and marriage, motherhood, power, crisis and loss, retirement, legacy building. In The Seven Pearls of Financial Wisdom, experts Carol Pepper and Camilla Webster offer women one invaluable pearl of wisdom for each of these key areas, helping them move beyond outdated financial-planning ideas to enjoy their power, transforming both their money and their lives.

Download or read book Decolonizing Wealth written by Edgar Villanueva and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decolonizing Wealth is a provocative analysis of the dysfunctional colonial dynamics at play in philanthropy and finance. Award-winning philanthropy executive Edgar Villanueva draws from the traditions from the Native way to prescribe the medicine for restoring balance and healing our divides. Though it seems counterintuitive, the philanthropic industry has evolved to mirror colonial structures and reproduces hierarchy, ultimately doing more harm than good. After 14 years in philanthropy, Edgar Villanueva has seen past the field's glamorous, altruistic façade, and into its shadows: the old boy networks, the savior complexes, and the internalized oppression among the “house slaves,” and those select few people of color who gain access. All these funders reflect and perpetuate the same underlying dynamics that divide Us from Them and the haves from have-nots. In equal measure, he denounces the reproduction of systems of oppression while also advocating for an orientation towards justice to open the floodgates for a rising tide that lifts all boats. In the third and final section, Villanueva offers radical provocations to funders and outlines his Seven Steps for Healing. With great compassion—because the Native way is to bring the oppressor into the circle of healing—Villanueva is able to both diagnose the fatal flaws in philanthropy and provide thoughtful solutions to these systemic imbalances. Decolonizing Wealth is a timely and critical book that preaches for mutually assured liberation in which we are all inter-connected.
