Women in Health Care: Take Time to Build a Financial Strategy
As a woman, you’re probably juggling a lot of roles, from health care professional to caregiver. You may be too busy to stop and think about putting a financial strategy in place.
The CDC says women live longer than men. And as a caregiver, you’ll likely to be out of the workforce for periods of time. Your unique life experiences can lead to a reduction of earnings, retirement savings and Social Security.
