Money Makeovers: How Women Can Control Their Financial Destiny - Christopher L. Hayes

. .

Résumé :
In a book that is at once a wake-up call and a practical guide, Dr. Christopher Hayes, teaches women to understand their own financial personality profile, overcome gender-based resistance, and take charge of their economic security.
Because studies have proved that women are less psychologically inclined than men to save on a regular basis, less likely than men to benefit from social security and pension benefits, and at increased financial risk as a result of widowhood and divorce, Money Makeovers is a book no woman can afford to be without.
Christopher Hayes's unique Women Cents Self-Study Test empowers women to recognize specific links between money attitudes and personality types. In the numerous anecdotes and case histories throughout the text, women will be able to see themselves, learn why they have been reluctant or unable to save, and discover how to overcome their own self-defeating psychological barriers.
Moving beyond traditional how-to books, Money Makeovers offers targeted advice that speaks to the unique concerns and fears of each individual. By following Hayes's savvy, specific financial advice, each and every woman will be able to plan her own future, free of economic anxiety.
