Book Men  Women  and Money

Download or read book Men Women and Money written by David R. Green and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries witnessed significant developments in the structure, organization, and expansion of financial markets and opportunities for investment in Britain and its empire. But very little is known about how men and women engaged with these markets and with new opportunities for money-making. In what ways did the composition of personal fortunes alter in response to these developments? How did individuals make use of new financial opportunities to further their own priorities and ensure their families' well-being? What choices of securities did they make, and how did these reflect their attitudes to investment risk? What were the implications of a rapidly growing investor population for corporate governance and the regulation of markets? How significant is gender in understanding new patterns of wealth holding and investment? This interdisciplinary book brings together a range of leading international scholars to answer these questions and to develop important new research agendas. Foremost among these is a concern for gender, with several of the chapters exploring the growing importance of women within investment markets. These findings open up dialogues between economic and financial historians with social, gender, and feminist historians, and add a significant new dimension to existing research on women's economic agency. The volume also breaks fresh ground by analysing aspects of wealth holding and finance in British colonial settings: Canada and Australia. Understanding the extent to which global financial processes shaped the economic lives of those on the 'periphery' as well as at the 'heart' of empire will offer new insights into the social and geographical diffusion of financial markets.

Download or read book The Rise of Women and Wealth written by Cindy Couyoumjian and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cindy Couyoumjian—founder of Cinergy Financial, with over 36 years of experience—is on a mission to empower women to stop being spectators and enter the financial arena; to stand up and assert their inalienable right to financial self-determination. Although today in the US, women are making gains in higher education, hold corporate positions, and are successful leaders, men still control most of the household wealth. Yet women are powerful agents of change with boundless potential in the financial realm. In The Rise of Women and Wealth, Cindy shows that by confronting America’s patriarchal past, women can become financially literate; reclaim the power and liberty that have been taken away; embrace a financial future filled with endless possibilities; strongly affirm, “Yes, I can.” Women everywhere must find the courage, strength, and inspiration to move forward by understanding the past. Cindy’s message is a hopeful one, filled with intuitive truths about a brighter tomorrow for women and their financial power and freedom. Cindy Couyoumjian is a Registered Representative offering securities and advisory services through Independent Financial Group LLC (IFG), a Registered Investment Adviser. Member FINRA/SIPC. Cinergy Financial Greenleaf Book Group Press, R. F. Georgy, and IFG are unaffiliated.

Book Women and Wealth in Late Medieval Europe

Download or read book Women and Wealth in Late Medieval Europe written by T. Earenfight and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-03-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelve essays in Women and Wealth in Late Medieval Europe re-examine the vexing issue of women, money, wealth, and power from distinctive perspectives - literature, history, architectural history - using new archival sources. The contributors examine how money and changing attitudes toward wealth affected power relations between women and men of all ranks, especially the patriarchal social forces that constrained the range of women s economic choices. Employing theories on gender, culture, and power, this volume reveals wealth as both the motive force in gender relations and a precise indicator of other, more subtle, forms of power and influence mediated by gender.

Book Women  Wealth and Wisdom

Download or read book Women Wealth and Wisdom written by Steven Darwin Wightman and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-12-25 with total page 314 pages. 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.

  • Pages : 417 pages

Download or read book Women Money Power written by Josie Cox and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From an experienced financial journalist, Women Money Power is the story of how women have fought for financial freedom, and the social and political hurdles that have kept them from equality. For centuries, women were denied equal access to money and the freedom and power that came with it. They were restricted from owning property or transacting in real estate. Even well into the 20th century, women could not take out their own loans or own bank accounts without their husband’s permission. They could be fired for getting married or pregnant, and if they still had a job, they could be kept from certain roles, restricted from working longer hours, and paid less than men for equal work. It was a raw deal, and women weren’t happy with it. So they pushed back. In Women Money Power, financial journalist Josie Cox tells the story of women’s fight for financial freedom. This is an inspirational account of brave pioneers who took on social mores and the law, including the “Rosies” who filled industrial jobs vacated by men and helped win WWII, the heiress whose fortune helped create the birth control pill, the brassy investor who broke into the boys’ club of the New York Stock Exchange, and the namesake of landmark equal pay legislation who refused to accept discrimination. But as any woman can tell you, the battle for equality—for money and power—is far from over. Cox delves deep into the challenges women face today and the culture and systems that hold them back. This is a fascinating narrative account of progress, women’s lives, and the work still to be done.

Book The New Wealth of Nations

Download or read book The New Wealth of Nations written by Surjit S. Bhalla and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging world was poor and illiterate just forty years ago. Today, over 70 per cent of the world’s middle class resides in the erstwhile poor countries; world income inequality is down to levels last observed in 1870; and there has been a large reduction in absolute poverty. What accounts for such rapid development and catch-up? Distinguished economist Surjit S. Bhalla’s The New Wealth of Nations offers a short answer—the spread of education. The very large increase in college graduates in the non-Western world, the growing educational achievements of women, and the radical change in gender roles is critical to the understanding of current-day mega-trends. Indeed, this unprecedented development—which creates competition globally and lowers employment costs—is also why world inflation has been low, and declining, for nearly twenty years. Here is a book that breaks new ground. Besides identifying the fallacies in anti-globalization rhetoric—voiced by Brexit and Trump supporters—it points out a major lacuna in current attempts to measure wealth inequality. Through a series of compelling arguments, anecdotes, studies, calculations, tables, and charts, Bhalla emphatically reminds us that education is the new wealth, and is, in fact, currently of a greater magnitude than financial wealth, and much more equally distributed. Even while acknowledging the giant strides made by the developing world, The New Wealth of Nations investigates the downsides to the explosion of education and technology, and why countries, rich and emerging, will have to explore options like basic income and negative income tax, so that a new welfare order, appropriate for the changed—and changing—21st century can emerge. * Surjit S. Bhalla has been recently appointed as a member of PM Modi’s Economic Advisory Council, and his new work is a ground-breaking achievement that argues for a new welfare order across nations which is better suited for the constantly transforming time we live in. * Through a series of compelling arguments, anecdotes, studies, calculations, tables, and charts, noted economist Surjit S. Bhalla establishes in his latest book that education is the new wealth of nations. * This book offers insights into the definitions of the poor, the middle class, and the rich, while relating each of these to advances in schooling attainment. It explores the economic reasons behind the political success of globalization in the Western world till the early 2000s, and now its fall from grace in these same countries as notably evidenced by Brexit and the rise of Donald Trump. * Releasing for authors UK visit in February 2018.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Redefining and Reclaiming Financial Literacy As a certified financial planner with thirty-five years of industry experience, Cindy Couyoumjian is committed to filling the financial literacy void for many Americans. In her timely and thought-provoking book, Cindy gives a unique macro perspective of what she calls “the hidden forces behind your money,” which are the unseen political and economic forces that may influence your investment decisions. Through meticulous research, Cindy shows how these hidden forces have contributed to a complex retirement system, which includes pensions, social security, and what she believes is the outdated 60/40 investment model. To address this issue, Cindy spent endless hours developing a new multi-asset class investment methodology, known as the REALM model, that may offer broader investment strategies aimed to mitigate risk from the hidden forces that may negatively impact your goals. Redefining Financial Literacy can help you • Understand the complex macro forces that you cannot control, yet could determine your financial future, • Take actionable steps to regain command of your retirement strategy, • Build a retirement with potential durable income strategies, lesser volatility, and risk-adjusted returns. Redefining Financial Literacy and Cindy’s innovative REALM model can open your eyes to investment possibilities while helping you regain confidence in the American dream. Diversification does not guarantee profit nor is it guaranteed to protect assets. There is no assurance that any strategy/model will achieve its objectives.

Book excerpt: Essential reading for our times, as women are pulling together to demand their rights— A landmark portrait of women, men, and power in a transformed world. “Anchored by data and aromatized by anecdotes, [Rosin] concludes that women are gaining the upper hand." –The Washington Post Men have been the dominant sex since, well, the dawn of mankind. But Hanna Rosin was the first to notice that this long-held truth is, astonishingly, no longer true. Today, by almost every measure, women are no longer gaining on men: They have pulled decisively ahead. And “the end of men”—the title of Rosin’s Atlantic cover story on the subject—has entered the lexicon as dramatically as Betty Friedan’s “feminine mystique,” Simone de Beauvoir’s “second sex,” Susan Faludi’s “backlash,” and Naomi Wolf’s “beauty myth” once did. In this landmark book, Rosin reveals how our current state of affairs is radically shifting the power dynamics between men and women at every level of society, with profound implications for marriage, sex, children, work, and more. With wide-ranging curiosity and insight unhampered by assumptions or ideology, Rosin shows how the radically different ways men and women today earn, learn, spend, couple up—even kill—has turned the big picture upside down. And in The End of Men she helps us see how, regardless of gender, we can adapt to the new reality and channel it for a better future.

Book Women  Wealth and Mobility

Download or read book Women Wealth and Mobility written by Lena Edlund and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The extent of and changes in inter-generational mobility of wealth are central to understanding dynamics of wealth inequality but hard to measure. Using estate tax returns data, we observe that the share of women among the very wealthy (top 0.01%) in the United States peaked in the late 1960s, reaching almost 50%. Three decades on, women's share had declined to one third, a return to pre-war levels. We argue that this pattern mirrors the relative importance of inherited vs. self-made wealth in the economy and thus the gender-composition of the wealthiest may serve as a proxy for inter-generational wealth mobility. This proxy for "dynastic wealth'' suggests that wealth mobility in the past century decreased until the 1970s and rose thereafter, a pattern consistent with technological change driving long term trends in income inequality and mobility. Greater wealth mobility in recent decades is also consistent with the simultaneous rise in top income shares and relatively stable wealth concentration."--abstract.
