Your Guide to Achieving Your Goals

Why a web site just for women? Don't the same rules for savings apply to men as well?

The answer is yes, but like many things in life, it's not that simple.

Different Lives. Different Needs.

You want security. So does he. You need enough money to retire in comfort, so does he. You have dreams, so does he. How, then, are your financial needs different from his?

In most cases, you'll live longer. Earn less. And spend fewer years in the workplace. All this profoundly affects your finances—and your future.

For women, sound planning is even more crucial than it is for men.

Here's why:

• Women live on average 7 years longer than men*
• Approximately 50% of marriages today now end in divorce.**
• Women work on average 11 years less than men.
• For every year a woman is out of the workforce, she must work an extra five years to make up for lost income, promotions and pensions.****
• Women earn 23% less than men*
