I was lucky. My children didn't have health issues, didn't have big school problems, etc. And as I watched some of my peers go through this, you can see how quickly a family can get derailed when they are not lucky.

Women tend to live longer than men do. Women tend to have, unfortunately, their salaries peaked sooner than men's do. Both of these things are extraordinarily important in putting together financial and investing plans for women.

Companies that put a mandated parental leave in place save money in the first year, FIRST YEAR. Because they don't have to hire to replace the woman.

We don't recognize the power of compounding.

If a woman was successful, she wasn't helping other women.

I love what's going on these days with these powerful women who are really working to make a difference.

Your adrenaline starts to go when the market opens in the morning. It's like sports programming.
