Despite gains in labor participation over the last few decades, women continue to experience a gender pay gap which impacts the income stream available to save, spend, and invest at rates comparable to men. Retirement and other long-term investment goals suffer, as a result.
Unfortunately, the pandemic has reversed key trends in women-owned businesses and their labor participation rates overall. Studies continue to show that financial literacy is a cornerstone of economic stability and despite gains in other areas of life, women of all ages still report looking to someone else for assistance in understanding and guiding their finances.
While statistics indicate some people used the pandemic to reduce loans and/or credit card debt, there is still an overwhelming reliance on the use of credit. For many people, this translates into debt that can feel crushing.
Some debt may be good; do you know how to distinguish between good debt and bad debt?
In this CPE course, speaker Ilene Slatko discusses credit use and abuse, and steps to take to help establish or build good credit. She will also present comprehensive information on different types of insurance and when they might be appropriate to use.
Wherever you are in your understanding and mastery of your financial life, this CE/CPE Finance course will give you the tools and knowledge to make the choices necessary to have a successful financial future.
This CPE/CPD course encourages participants to view financial management as a critical skill. We start to build each participant’s financial puzzle, a process that will continue throughout the 8-webinar series; this is the third of them.
