Packed with loads of good advice about important money matters, Women & Money gives you the information you’ve been looking for. This book will walk you through the basics of setting up a financial plan and help you achieve your goals. And the bonus is in the last six chapters where Dee Lee helps the reader figure out how to handle the different money roles women take on at different stages of their lives; what you need to know as someone’s wife, ex-wife, widow, mother, daughter or partner.
