Torabi says:
If there’s a single mantra that can be applied to everyone this year, it’s this: Save, save, and save some more. As the founder of financial planning firm Aptus Financial and the breadwinner in her family, Sarah Catherine Guitterez experienced firsthand the struggles many women can have with money, particularly when it comes to saving and investing. But First, Save 10, encourages saving at least 10% of every paycheck before doing anything else. It’s another way of saying “pay yourself first,” which is one bit of financial advice that Guitterez says she can’t preach enough.
“I realized we have got to demystify this … because women don’t engage with financial services in confident ways. There is a lot of avoidance when it comes to signing up for that retirement plan,” she told me. “My life’s career is going to be in being this translator. This person who can bring women to the table and actually say, ‘Hey, it’s not nearly as hard as it sounds. We make it hard, but it’s really not.’”
Congratulations for this well-deserved recognition, Ladysplaining Money, and for helping every reader learn the most important ways to empower herself!
