“Women, I would say, are already very good managers inherently…I feel women must now understand that it is time to add one more super skill - being financially sound. Women are also generally very good, disciplined investors. They will eventually do good for themselves and their families if they take an active part in managing their own money.” Welcome to the Women’s Day special on The Moneywise Podcast.
