YOU ARE A SMART WOMAN, BUT DO YOU STILL: —Feel you’re too busy to invest your money? —Rely on someone else to deal? —Get bored by financial talk? —Think that investing is something only men do? —Worry you’re not smart enough? THINK AGAIN.Women have made strides in so many areas and yet we still have a blind spot when it comes to managing our money. Why? A myriad of factors cause women to earn less than men over a lifetime, making it all the more imperative that we make the money we do have work for us as much as possible. And here’s a reality check: as many as nine out of ten of us will have to manage our finances and those of our family at some point in our lives. And a lot of us think that means keeping our money “safe” in savings accounts, and not investing it. But not doing so has an opportunity cost that will lead to opportunities lost—the ability to pay for a college education, own a home, change careers to pursue a dream, or retire. Alice Finn wants to change how you think about your money, no matter how much or little you have. In Smart Women Love Money, Finn paves the way forward by showing you that the power of investing is the last frontier of feminism. Drawing on more than twenty years of experience as a successful wealth management adviser, Finn shares five simple and proven strategies for a woman at any stage of her life, whether starting a career, home raising children, or heading up a major corporation. Finn’s Five Life-changing Rules of Investing will secure your financial future: 1. Invest in Stocks for the Long Run: Get the magic of compounding working for you, starting now. 2. Allocate your Assets: Strategize your investing to get the most of your returns. 3. Implement with Index Funds: Take advantage of “passive” investing with simple, low-cost, and diverse funds. 4. Rebalance Regularly: Sell high and buy low without much effort, to keep you on track toward your goals. 5. Keep Your Fees Low: Uncover hidden fees so you don’t lose half of your wealth to Wall Street. Finn will also provide the tools you need to achieve long-term success no matter what the markets are doing or what the headlines say. So even in the face of uncertainty— such as the possible dumping of the fiduciary rule (requiring financial advisers to act in their client’s best interests) by the Trump administration—Smart Women Love Money will help you protect yourself and all of your assets for your future. Whether you have $10, $10,000, or more, it’s time to get smart about your money.

Do you:Feel you're too busy to invest your money?Rely on someone else to deal?Get bored by financial talk?Think that investing is something only men do?Worry you're not smart enough? Think again.Women who have advanced in so many areas still have a blind spot when it comes to managing their own money, even though as many as nine out of ten of them, at some point in their lives, will have to independently manage their finances and those of their family. Whether they're starting a career, home raising children, or heading up a major corporation, women need to know how to invest wisely and make their money work for them. Yet studies show that most women have little or no confidence in their abilities, or even any interest in developing them. Alice Finn plans to change that. In Smart Women Love Money, Finn shows you can have it all and pay for it yourself, too--you just have to shake your fears and learn how. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience as a successful wealth management adviser, Finn will show you how to invest in your financial future with 5 simple rules that cut through the unnecessarily complex jargon of Wall Street. You don't need to know how to structure intricate equations - you just need some basic common sense. With Smart Women Love Money, you can learn how to talk about and manage your own investing so that you're in better control of your money and future. The 5 life-changing rules will: motivate you to invest, focus you on strategy that really matters, simplify your investing, keep you on track, and ensure your fees are low so you don't lose half your wealth to Wall Street (yes, many people do that and don't even know it's happening). Whether you have $10, $10,000, or more, it's time to get smart about your money.

What happens when a group of fun loving, happy go lucky Buzzy Bees meet up with a group of ‘Look at Me’ butterflies?With the Wonderland Park Garden Show fast approaching, Monique (the most stunning of all butterflies, in her mind anyway) and her ‘personally selected’ group of friends have been preparing for the big day for weeks. The girls have been attending Monique’s workshops on make-up and poses to make sure that everything is just perfect. Monique’s aim is to attract the attention of photographer’s and to get those cameras click, click, clicking (apparently, to her, that is what life is all about!).The Buzzy Bees have very different interests. They love laughing, having fun with their friends, making up silly songs and playing their favourite game, Pollen Dodge! The Buzzy Bees show us how great it is to just be yourself and enjoy the important things in life such as fun, laughter and great friendships. Their message is simple…Gotta love to ‘Bee’ you.This is a fun story which also has a message for children about greater social awareness, dealing with peer group pressure, being themselves and just having fun!
