I have been a financial advisor for more than 30 years and, in my experience, women are better investors than men. Why? They are able to use both common sense and emotion at the same time. Most women who I’ve worked with are incredibly good at managing their emotions, delegating a task and giving up control to an expert who may know more about a certain investment than they do.
If you are a woman in a relationship who has delegated all financial decisions to your husband or significant other, I encourage you to change the dynamic and start communicating with him about your shared wealth. Work as a team, understand the financials, and know that your voice counts.
