| divorce and financial planning: Planning for When: A Woman’s Guide to Financial Planning Kevin W. Pinkley AIFA®, CDFA™, CIMA®, 2016-03-04 It doesn't matter if they are married, divorced or single: Women tend to put others first. It could be the result of a maternal gene or simply a natural disposition to view others as more important, but it's an instinct that makes it more difficult to achieve financial security and independence. Kevin W. Pinkley, a longtime financial advisor, walks women through the steps they need to take in seeking to build and preserve wealth. Learn how to: plan for a retirement with the goal of providing a lifestyle that meets your needs; provide for a loved one in the event of death; minimize the financial impact of divorce or the death or disability of a spouse; and engage in difficult conversations with your spouse about money. Many women shrug off questions about money by saying that their spouses are smart and must have a well thought out plan that will meet their needs. But being smart is different than being wise, and women need to take charge of the future by Planning for When. |

Grant: Ann Grant, author of The Divorce Hacker’s Guide to Untying the Knot, began her career as a corporate litigator specializing in unfair business practices and consumer fraud. After her divorce, she created her own firm, focusing on family law and a holistic approach to this life transition.

It's about our family, it's about our first experiences with money, it's about our life values, and it's about the conversations we do or do not have with the people who influence our saving, investing, sharing, and spending. Unfortunately, most wealth management firms rarely take the time to get to know their clients in a way that truly allows them to develop the perfect, individualized solution for each client. In addition, many financial planners overlook the psychological elements that drive financial decisions. In FLOURISH FINANCIALLY, author Kathy Longo takes a personalized approach to finance, helping you analyze the nine core areas where you typically spend your time--finances, family, health, leisure, learning, inner growth, home, community, and work--so you can understand your own money story to develop a strong financial plan and future. You'll learn about different financial planning tools and practices--most importantly, how to communicate about money matters with those you care about--to help you get to the heart of your values and priorities, establish meaningful financial and life goals, and create an effective and inspiring decision-making framework. |
