Our society likes to tell us that the economy isn’t a “women’s issue,” but that’s just plain wrong. No matter how much you read the news or whether or not you work, you know about the economy because you are the economy!

What is one financial skill that you are confident in?

Finding a good deal
Making and sticking to a budget
Saving a little money every month
Negotiating a bill (health care, utilities)
Applying for government resources if I need them

Good for you! Plenty of women manage household budgets, save, work, or notice when prices go up and down. Those are all important parts of the economy.

What is one thing about finances or the economy that you’d like to learn more about?

How to build my credit score
How to save for retirement
How to buy a home
How to ask for a raise
How to find a first job
