What you can learn from this ebook

There is great beauty, and great valor, in every woman’s struggle to leave her mark on this world. We all know the women and the stories: The bravery of a single mother juggling two jobs; the strength of a grandmother who still goes to work every day to help raise her grandchildren and save enough to one day retire; the amazing grace of our aunts and sisters and best friends fighting to overcome breast cancer or another illness. The poise of every young woman who refuses to listen to the ads and institutions that tell her she is only valuable if she is blonde, and thin, and perfect.

We must celebrate these women’s stories and what they tell us—that we are not alone, and that we can change the way things are. Today, at the start of the 21st century, when a woman decides to take her finances into her own hands, and to provide for a secure and comfortable and dignified retirement, she is confronted with having to make many complicated choices and many difficult decisions. And it’s not surprising, then, for a woman to feel overwhelmed, alone and on her own.

This book and its authors are here to tell all working women two important things. First: You Can Do It. Second: You Are Not Alone. We are here to share the practical wisdom gained from experiences like yours, to help you take control of your life and prepare for your retirement.
