Smart Money Moves For Women: How to Conquer Your Financial Fears by Dr.
Judith Briles
Did you know that nine out of ten women will be solely responsible for
their finances at some point in their lives? We know a girlfriend who has
never written out a rent check or paid an electric bill. She went
from living with her parents, to living with her husband. And she
recently confided that she worried if anything ever happened to hubby,
she'd be lost. Well, we have more faith in her than that, but its
still not a good thing to be completely inexperienced with financial
matters whether you depend on others or not. This book offers an
easy-to-follow, ten part program that will launch you on your way to
becoming one financially savvy girlfriend!
