Summary |
My initiation into the financial field began after receiving a family legacy and meeting a persuasive broker. Snowing me with his sales skills and treating me as his "special" client, Mr. Enthusiasm and Charm sold me a potpourri of financial programs I didn't understand or need, pushed his "couldn't lose" tax shelter schemes, flattered me into unpaid temping for his new firm, continued losing my money, then cajoled me into earning a securities license to make up my personal investment losses. Reading this book will bring you: Enjoyment: Balance between fun and profit--thread the serious business of money through a humorous memoir for a positive message. Motivation/education: For women, especially, to come away empowered to handle their own finances and have enough general information to get started. I hope readers will learn that dealing with money does not have to be a difficult, time consuming or unhappy task. |
