English Summary/英文概要: A Guide to Talking Finances with Our Daughters!
As many as 56% of women feel that they’d rather not talk about money with their loved ones. Some women say they were raised not to discuss money and others feel like the information is just too personal. Yet with many women controlling household budgets and raising the next generation of female earners, this could be a recipe for disaster in some homes and for society at large.
How a Mother Should Talk About Money with Her Daughter helps readers broach money topics with their daughters in a meaningful, compassionate, and even fun way. It speaks to parents who may feel inadequate about their own money skills but still want to discuss money with their daughters while helping them build good financial habits. The goal is to start conversations that leave parents and girls empowered to love themselves (through good money management) and make the world a better place with their financial resources. Topics include how to save as a young person, the pros and cons of investing, how to determine which college is right (in terms of finances and future job prospects), how to determine a future partner is right (in terms of similar financial goals), and more.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这是与女儿谈论财务的有效指南!
多达56%的女性认为,她们不愿与所爱的人谈论金钱。一些女性表示,她们成长的环境也不讨论钱,而另一些女性则觉得这些信息太私人了。然而,由于许多女性控制着家庭预算,并培养了下一代女性收入者,不谈论可能会给一些家庭和整个社会带来灾难。
