I mean, my iPhone pushes me these adorable pictures of my now 16-year-old when he was a baby, and I want that time back and it's really hard. So we want to hold onto our kids, and that's why we as parents often over subsidize them.”“It is so hard because we're tempted to pay for everything for our kids, because we still see them as kids, and they're forever our children. So these are really hard, and that's why I wrote “Launching Financial Grownups, because I was struggling with this. And I will tell you, so I'm going to give away one thing from the book is that our 26 year old, she was 24 at the time when the book had been written, she was saving for an apartment in New York City, which is a very ambitious goal for a 22, 23-year-old. She lived at home, she switched her major in college which I do talk about in the book, why she switched to cybersecurity versus being in education, and it was with a focus on ‘Where can I earn more money?' And I will tell you, when she reached her goal of being able to buy her own apartment. And while we had to be in the background, as you say, she paid for everything, the down payment, all the lawyer costs, all the closing costs, every penny she paid for, the pride in that young lady's eyes, you have never seen. It is a gift to parents. When you let your child succeed on their own and you're just there cheering them on and you're just there cheering them on, that is going to be priceless. And so I would implore parents to let their kids shine.”

And I think that anyone listening can relate to that thing they're sitting on, or stalled on — maybe they did it — or maybe they're still sitting on it, because they're not sure it's ready, or they're not sure they're ready, they're not sure it's good enough, they're not sure they want to be seen, or what would people say? And I would just say, what if you acted as if you had no choice, and you just did it and see what happens? Because sometimes action can be a hell of a lot more effective than analysis.”“If we are waiting for lightning bolt motivation to do the thing we're meant to do in life or to develop that skill or to learn that language or to start that exercise routine or to revisit our relationship with our spouse or our partner, whatever. If we're waiting for that lightning bolt, you're gonna die waiting. And I say that not to be cynical, but to say, if that were the secret, don't you think that we would have hacked that by now? Don't you think we would be doing all the things and all out here living our best life? I don't know about you, but that's not what happens for me. And the myth that you need to land on motivation, or even better, that it would land on you, that is not going to get you where you need to be. So the word I replace it with, every day of my life, is momentum.”
Since 90% of venture capitalists are men, it makes sense that female founders have a much harder time getting funding, especially when they're focused on women's issues. Trish Costello is working to change that as the founder and CEO of Portfolia, a company that creates investment funds for women looking to back innovative companies. In this episode, Trish explains why investing in companies is such a powerful tool for building wealth and creating change in the world. She also shares practical steps for how you can get started in the space.

It really is effective in two areas, right? It allows you to promote companies that are coming up with innovation, and hopefully trending in the woman area. But it's also allowing women to become investors in these endeavors and learn more and more about it. I think a lot of people think this is a world just for super rich people who are really familiar with the space, and they don't realize that you can get involved in it.”“We have an opportunity to create wealth, but we also have an opportunity to create wealth while enhancing our lives. And to me that's that other piece of it that's so exciting.That's so important.Yes! Kimberlee, 90% of the check writers in venture capital are men. And you know, even if they aren't grossed out by women's health, they don't really understand it, you know? And so, they don't have a passion for it.”
When families can't access childcare, women are disproportionately affected. And that impact ripples out to hurt the entire economy. In this episode, Kimberlee examines the “childcare cliff” we're facing now that pandemic-era subsidies for childcare have expired. She explains why it's so important for women to be able to participate in the workforce and shares some steps you can take to advocate for change on this important issue. Episode Recap: Today we're talking about the “childcare cliff” that impacts many women's finances (1:08) The cut off of childcare subsidization will have a massive economic impact (2:48) When families can't access childcare, women are disproportionately affected (9:50) The childcare cliff can also impact women's decisions to become parents (15:37) Time out of the workforce has a lifelong impact on women's finances (18:08) When women leave the workforce, everyone loses (20:21) Resources: Visit the Fiscal Feminist Website Find every episode of the Fiscal Feminist podcast “The Fiscal Feminist” book Research Mentioned: The Century Foundation research on the childcare cliff 2021 Child Care Affordability Analysis from Childcare Aware OECD Report on Child Care Costs McKinsey Report on Women in Leadership Childcare Cliff Study by the Center for American Progress Study on the Economic Impact of Child Care Inaccessibility Quotes:“So, what happens when parents can't afford childcare or can't get access? The burden exponentially falls on women. Women are taking the hit. So what are these childcare cliff implications for women? First, women are 5-8x more likely than men to have their employment affected by caregiving responsibilities. And that is from the State of Women in the Labor Market Report from 2023. When one partner needs to stay home or limit their hours or change jobs to become more flexible, it often falls to the woman. And the statistics have supported this now for years.” “I want to raise the alarm for all of you, that it's important. This isn't me just ranting and raving, it has real effects on us, on women, on children, on families, on productivity of our country, on the global economy, and on the living standard for everybody. If we want the birth rate to go up, then we need to make it a more accommodating environment for women to have children. Women should not have to make undue sacrifices that everybody else in society doesn't have to make.”
Kimberlee's book and podcast, THE FISCAL FEMINIST, is a financial wake-up call for women in which she shares her personal and professional expertise to help women improve their financial health, money-proof their relationships and learn how to be intentional and strategic with their finances and careers. Kimberlee has more than 25 years of finance, legal and corporate experience.

While many women feel overwhelmed today in a post-pandemic world, juggling careers, motherhood and a looming recession, Kimberlee believes every woman can improve her financial health no matter her age, economic or marital status.

It's critical. And then when I created my own consulting firm in 2010, we don't have to go into the office. I think two days a week is fine. And there were times, I had my hips replaced last year, I didn't go into the office for three months. And you know what? We did great!”“Luckily for your client, she had you to help her thread that needle. And what you gave her was advice for negotiation based on a financial plan. Yes, exactly. And what I gave her too was a voice. You know, I think that that's our biggest problem — women more than men — is that we're not taught how to really talk about money well. We're not as educated yet about how to do plans and why plans are important. We're getting there, I think women are signing up in faster percentages than men at this stage.”
Are you paralyzed by credit card debt and not sure where to start with paying it off? In our first episode on debt, diet and alcohol, Kimberlee explored the psychology of debt.

Is there good debt? Yes, there is good debt. All debt is not created equal, right? Debt used to build wealth is generally viewed as good debt: taking out a mortgage, investing in yourself by borrowing for more education so you can get a good job, small business loans, or debt consolidation. These are all forms of good debt that are going to help you build you net worth, either by getting an asset like a house or getting an education so that you can go get a better job, or eliminating high-interest rate credit cards so you can lower your interest rate and pay one payment and get all this debt eradicated over a certain, finite period of time.”“The first thing I recommend to everybody, because I know this works, is take a very deep breath. This is a doable strategy. You can do it. I know it's overwhelming, and when you look at your credit card statements, sometimes you think ‘OMG, how did I get myself into this big mess. So take a deep breath. Anything can be accomplished if we put our minds to it.”

I barely do, and I know more than most people. So it's just crazy to me that we're supposed to go out here and buy houses and do all these things, but I'm a millennial, so I have to learn as I go. So it's interesting to see the lack of knowledge.”“Tell me a little bit about cohosting. Because I think a lot of people would be really interested in that because it has a low barrier to entry, right? You don't have to buy a house, right? Yeah the most cost effective way to get your start and to learn, for sure.So what exactly does somebody do? How do they get involved with this, how do they find out about it, how do they find someone to cohost with, how does that work? The easiest way that I always recommend to my followers is to just ask a friend or a family member. You'd be surprised how many people have rental properties or already have Airbnbs that are either empty or not making as much as they could with their tenants. It's an easy way to go in, that's what I did with my parents, they were my first cohosting client. I was like ‘Let me take your rental property and throw it on Airbnb. I will definitely increase profits, I will do all the work, it's a win-win here.' I like it because it's another pivot for people, too. You can do it while you're still working other jobs and just branch out to see if it's even worth taking the jump for.”

We are trying to get ourselves out of a place of discomfort and into comfort as quickly as possible, and a lot of times that is not the best strategy for your finances. So looking at taking the breath, making the plan, and then deciding how you're going to execute and what you want that to look like. And be mindful of what emotional or financial triggers might come up for you that may cause you to spiral again.”“Have the conversation. Be awkward about it. Trip over yourself when you're talking to each other. But if you cannot have these conversations about money, if you disagree or don't disagree, we got other things. Because life is going to come at you hard and fast, and if you can't talk to this person who you've decided you want to commit the rest of your life to, it's going to be really difficult. It's going to be very, very difficult, and we don't need it to be that hard.”

I've watched them work so hard to earn one dollar. And so the thought of money multiplying using other money was mind blowing. And so at that time I decided, ‘I'm going to double down, and instead of doing $200 a month, I'm going to do $400 a month.'”“It doesn't matter how much financial literacy you take in. If you don't identify your relationship with money and how toxic it can be, then you're not going to be able to build wealth. I feel like it is almost impossible. If you really believe that wealthy people are greedy, then your subconscious will do everything to repel becoming wealthy because you don't want to be greedy.”
We often think of money solely in objective terms, but our finances are also emotional and spiritual. In this episode, Kimberlee talks with “The Money Witch” Jesse-Susannah Karnatz about the amazing work she's doing to help people heal their relationships with money. Jesse-Susannah explains why so many people think they're bad with money and describes how you can begin to shift that mindset to one of abundance. Jesse-Susannah is an author, leader of the Money Coven, and coach providing capitalism-critical, shame-free education. Episode Recap: Today we're talking with “The Money Witch,” Jesse-Susannah Karnatz (0:56) Manifestation is about getting out of your own way (5:26) Can you tell us about the kinds of work you do?

So, it's Money Witch: Heal Your Finances. What I mean when I say healing is it's a movement of energy. We want to experience shift. We want to experience ourself being able to respond differently to something we've been stuck in in the past. We want to come full circle to like a moment where we know, in the past I might have done this, but now I'm choosing to do this. More intentionality, less impulsivity, less reactivity. That's what I see as healing.”“Your finances need more love, not more willpower. A lot of times when we're trying to shift something in our financial life, we're operating from a shame-based place, and we get into this willpower ethic thing, where we're like, ‘I'm going to just try the same thing I've been trying, and I'm going to try it again, but this time I'm going to do it better because I'll be a better person and I'll just do it.' And I don't think that is very self-loving or very wise. We really have to dig in and look at what needs to iterate in the plan. If there's something that you just cannot get done, whether it's making a budget, doing your bookkeeping, filing your taxes on time without filing an extension, any of these things, really start looking at why that is and how can you iterate the plan and try something different.”
The average Black American has about 13 times less wealth than white Americans, so it's time for something to change. In this episode, Kimberlee talks with Runway Founder and CEO Jessica Norwood about the massive wealth gap for Black Americans and the work she's doing to change that. Through Runway, Jessica is empowering Black entrepreneurs with capital and mentorship, and she's also a speaker, author, and podcast host at the forefront of conversations about the intersection of race and economics, and she has so many powerful insights to share in this conversation.

(4:14) Why is access to education so important for disadvantaged groups?

I wanted to support the innovators and change makers and just brilliance that I saw all around me. But I also saw that there was this gap of being able to get access to the resources that people needed, and I couldn't understand why.”“Wealth gets unequally distributed because of racial bias. And it looks like, at the time when I started Runway this was a piece of data that was so new, I want to say it was about 6 or 7 years ago, the data has since been updated. But the number then was that white people had $141,000 in wealth and Black families had about $11,000. And this was including the wealthiest wealthy that you could think of, right, on both sides of the equation. So I like to say it's P Diddy and all my cousins in that number. And it's about $10, 11 thousand. And then you've got uber, uber wealthy, wealthy folks, billionaire folks, and all your cousins in there. And still the number lays out to this disparity between almost 13 times, 14 times more than the other.”
No one likes to talk about the worst-case scenario, but we need to be prepared for the unexpected. In this episode, Kimberlee talks with her colleague Sarah Leitzke, director of risk management at the Bahnsen Group. Sarah provides a primer on the 3 main types of insurance you should consider to secure your and your family's futures. She also answers some of the most frequently asked insurance questions, like when to buy insurance, how to find the right policy, and what insurance will actually cover. Episode Recap: Today we're talking with risk management director Sara Leitzke (0:01:01) Mentorship is key for women in the workplace (0:05:57) What is risk management and why is it important? (0:11:03) What qualifies as a disability for insurance? (0:15:54) Whole life vs. term insurance: Which is right for you? (0:24:13) When should you buy long-term care insurance? (0:34:02) How to choose the right long-term care insurance (0:41:34) Should you purchase a joint or individual policy?

But we need to plan for other risks, because there are other risks in our lives that an emergency account just won't cut it. If you need to change jobs and you're maybe going without a job for a few months, your emergency account is probably going to get you there. But if you have suffered an injury that puts you out of work for a long time, if you have an illness that puts you out of work for a long time, your health insurance probably isn't going to cut it because they're not going to pay you to not have a job. So then you turn to different types of insurance. So maybe you need to buy some disability insurance to insure your income. Because your most important asset is your income.”“If you are thinking about getting coverage of any kind and you're dragging your feet — which I have done and had to snap myself out of — you're as young as you'll ever be today, probably as healthy as you'll ever be today, and all of this, every type of insurance we've talked about today, requires medical underwriting. And the best time to do it is today.”

If you have a health problem, you go to the doctor and try to figure out how to fix it so that you can stay healthy. This is as important as going to the doctor, because if you don't, you may end up having health problems over it because you get so stressed out. So, the point of this podcast is for you to ponder the why of your debt honestly, and that is the first step to solving the problem.”“Most people fail to plan. They don't have a budget, and they rely on intuition to regulate spending. ‘Should I be spending this? Eh, well I have a little bit of room.' But they don't know because they haven't done a budget. And this is a really, really bad idea.”

What you're experiencing wasn't guilt from how I'm hearing it, it was a fear of not getting external validation or a fear of what other people will think of you.”

At the end of the day, it's hard work and asking the right questions, and having the discipline to follow up and answer all your questions in entirety. And after you do that you start to form a conviction of how good this company really is.”“When you're investing in individual stocks — especially if, let's so you're a listener and you've dabbled maybe a little bit or a medium amount — number one, you have to understand risk and you have to be prepared to deal with risk. That's why first and foremost I air on the side of caution when you're investing in an individual name. And this also goes for the stuff we invest in, too. As much work as we do to try to gauge the risks to a certain company's cash flows or business model, there is no company that we ever put a buyers recommendation on that is going to be immune for a large market sell.”

But there are plenty of ways to enjoy and have an abundant and happy life on a lower amount of money." - David

And part of your job is figuring out what the company actually really does value and doing more of that and less of the things they could give a rip about.”“You can't get married and expect to have a relationship work out without ever speaking up. And part of the solution to the dysfunctional workplaces and feeling taken advantage of and feeling like it's toxic, part of it is learning to speak up, and maybe doing it in a way that isn't broken glass or a bull in a china shop, but being able to speak up and share where you're at is incredibly important. So many of my clients that feel like they're overworked and they're burned out, when I ask them, ‘Have they talked with their manager?' They haven't. And your manager doesn't have a magic ball to say, ‘This person's full.' It does require your input and your help in order for them to understand.”

There's profit and loss that comes into that. And ultimately when a company hires you, they're not hiring you because they like you. They're hiring you to complete a job, and they're hiring you to pay a certain number. They have access to the same data that I do, market research. So they would know whether or not they're paying a fair market rate, the same way that I realized I wasn't getting it. And that was really disappointing, because I trusted my employer. I liked them, I was really proud to work for them. And that changed almost overnight.”“I did an interview with a company and they asked me the question that really got me fixated on salary transparency: ‘What are your salary requirements?' And I realized, this question, I get it in every interview. And every single time I get it, I feel the responsibility to say what I think I should be paid, and whether that's fair or not is placed on me instead of the company.”

You get to be able to do those things so that when you're living a longer life, you're living it the way you want to on your terms. You get to.”“How you choose to brand yourself is going to determine your value. So if you're never asking for more money, that translates into, you're not creating any new value. That's really important. Aren't you learning and growing on your job every single day? Isn't that creating more value for your company every single day? That means that you should get paid more over time to reflect that.”
The FIRE movement can sound incredibly appealing if you're unhappy in your job or wanting to spend more time in retirement. But is FIRE a viable solution when interest rates are high and people are living longer than ever before? In this episode, Kimberlee breaks down the history of the FIRE movement and the formula its proponents use to save more and retire sooner. She looks closely at the pros and cons of the FIRE movement and encourages listeners to strive instead for “Financial Independence, More Options.” Episode Recap: Today we're going to talk about FIRE, and whether or not it makes sense today (1:11) FIRE: Financial Independence, Retire Early (2:11) The FIRE movement became popular after the Great Recession (5:31) If you're not enjoying your career, maybe it's time to make a change (8:16) 3 approaches to FIRE (11:58) Here are some problems with the FIRE formula (16:36) If you want to retire early, make sure you have a bridge account (24:07) Aim for “Financial Independence, More Options” (28:52) Lessons we can learn from FIRE (31:30) Resources: Find every episode of the Fiscal Feminist podcast “The Fiscal Feminist” book “From Paycheck to Purpose” by Ken Coleman Quotes:“We need to take the journey with our professional lives to explore, develop, and experience our professional goals and growth. FIRE cuts that off at a very early age. 30, 40 is very young. Like I said before, you could live to be 80, 90, or 100 years old in this time, and it's a long time to be retired. Often, early retirees are running away from what they don't like. They may not have thought about their true purpose or interests. Maybe they're at a job they hate and they just want to stop and not deal with working at all. But again, throwing the baby out with the bath water in my opinion.” “Life is now very long for many of us (hopefully it is for me). Medical costs are high. And the time of easy money with low interest rates and low inflation may be a thing of the past. So, we need to redefine FIRE. We need to now call it, “Financial Independence, More Options.” That's what I like. I think that's a better version of FIRE, and it will make sure that you can live in your extended retirement in dignity.”
Think of budgeting like a medical checkup: even when it's tempting to put it off, you need to know what's wrong in order to treat it.

She also shares a step-by-step process for creating a budget and explains how this one financial tool can help you build your net worth.

So why do I think this? Because when we have financial problems, we're going to feel stressed, and sometimes we're even going to feel physically sick because of the stress we're feeling.”“To me, net worth is about the life and the experiences that you want to have, and having the freedom to pursue those experiences, to achieve the life that you want. Don't compare your net worth to others.”

Long before Hollywood discovered the winemaking landmark and its excellent wines, Gray Hartley, a former Alaskan salmon fisherman and Frank Ostini, chef and owner of the famed Hitching Post 2 Restaurant in Buellton, were brought together by their love of wine and winemaking. Over the years their backyard hobby has turned into a highly acclaimed winemaking enterprise. In 1981 they discovered the wonders of Santa Barbara Pinot Noir; since then Pinot has been their primary focus. Their flagship wine is the Hitching Post Highliner. The “Highliner” is the best fishermen in the fleet, and this name honors the great men of the Alaskan Salmon Fishery alongside whom Gray Hartley worked for 28 years. A special wine, Highliner is meant to be the “best of their fleet” of Pinot Noirs. Along with ten selections of Pinot Noir, Hitching Post produces a dry Rosé called Pinks, a Syrah, and a Merlot-based red named Gen Red. Then came Sideways in 2004, the Academy Award® winning film set in Santa Barbara wine country, prominently featuring The Hitching Post 2 and Hitching Post Wines.

This week's Fiscal Feminist podcast revisits the complex and demanding issues facing the “sandwich generation”. Many of us are “sandwiched” between the emotional and financial needs of our aging parents and the demands of raising younger children or financially supporting to some extent grown children. Add work responsibilities to the mix and it makes for a sometimes heavy load to carry. Trevor Cummings, my partner and colleague at The Bahnsen Group, interviews me on the topic focusing on the emotional, psychological, and financial demands of elderly caregiving of our loved ones and the strategy for being prepared for it so you aren't blindsided by the impact of it. It's an honest discussion of my journey with caregiving from the emotional toll to the financial impact. Links mentioned in this episode: TheBahnsenGroup.com TheFiscalFeminist.com
Today on Thoughts On Money, I bring you another podcast interview with one of my colleagues at The Bahnsen Group, Kimberlee Davis. Kimberlee is a Managing Director, a Partner, The Fiscal Feminist, a Private Wealth Advisor, and she carries a myriad of other titles, roles, and accomplishments, both professionally and personally. What you don't see on her business card or resume, though, is that Kimberlee is the proud mother of three and an engaged daughter who serves/cares for her parents. Kimberlee penned an article titled Blindsided By Being Sandwiched!, where she discusses her personal experience with her duties/responsibilities for caring for her aging parents AND simultaneously supporting/mothering her three young adult daughters. Kimberlee approaches the topic by sharing her journey and providing the perspective of a financial advice giver. This professional wisdom and her personal experience made her the ideal candidate to interview on this topic. This subject, the idea of “being sandwiched,” caring for two generations simultaneously, will be a reality for many. Kimberlee shared with me the importance of (1) being aware of your family's potential care needs on the horizon and (2) being proactive in having candid conversations with your parents and children to set clear expectations. Kimberlee discusses the financial implications, the time commitment, the emotional toll, and much more. This interview is not a “10 Step Checklist” or a “How-to Guide,” but rather a REAL conversation with a REAL professional living out this reality. Please join us for an inside look at being sandwiched and the sage wisdom from our very own Kimberlee Davis. Links mentioned in this episode: http://thoughtsonmoney.com http://thebahnsengroup.com
I recorded this special podcast with Mark, my husband of one month! As the Fiscal Feminist, I frequently speak to how our personal relationships and finance are intertwined and how best to circumnavigate this occasionally tricky area. Open and honest discussions about money and finances are a must in our personal relationships to prevent them from being harmed by financial stress and confusion. In this podcast, Mark and I discuss his thoughts on The Fiscal Feminist platform, negotiating our cohabitation agreement/prenuptial agreement, and how we have handled the “money” discussion. Listen in to hear what my other half really thinks about it all! Links mentioned in this episode: TheBahnsenGroup.com TheFiscalFeminist.com
Reinventarse a sí mismo: ¿Quién será usted después del COVID-19? Por Kimberlee Davis, anfitriona y fundadora de The Fiscal Feminist 4 de junio de 2020 Coronavirus (COVID-19), No faltan lecciones que aprender de la pandemia de COVID-19. Además de los ajustes económicos y de salud que todos estamos luchando por hacer, una avalancha de nuevos desafíos que aún no se han considerado todavía se avecina a la vuelta de la esquina. reinventando Fuente: Sensay / Shutterstock Mientras navegamos por estas aguas turbulentas de dificultades financieras, estrés y ansiedad, asegurémonos de mantener nuestro sentido de control y manejar los problemas que estamos autorizados a resolver. La mejor manera de hacerlo es reevaluando nuestras finanzas, enfocándonos en nuestras metas a largo plazo y reflexionando hacia adentro sobre nuestra propia identidad. De abogado de valores corporativos y banquero de inversiones a emprendedor y ama de casa, me he reinventado muchas veces. Algunos cambios fueron para mejor, otros no tanto. Descubrí que la clave para realizar transiciones sólidas es iniciarlas en un lugar tranquilo como el entorno único de la cuarentena. Con bocas que alimentar, facturas que pagar y sistemas inmunológicos que proteger, hacer un balance del panorama general puede parecer una prioridad baja en este momento, pero en realidad no debería serlo. En última instancia, quiénes elijamos ser (en los negocios, la riqueza, la familia o simplemente espiritualmente) determinará nuestro camino a seguir para salir de esta crisis. En medio del caos y la pérdida de control, nuestro propio sentido del yo es una de las pocas cosas que podemos controlar. Además, refugiarnos en el lugar nos brinda una oportunidad única de hacer algo de observación personal, autorreflexión, introspección y evaluación porque no perdemos tiempo en el tablero de reuniones en persona y prácticas de fútbol infantil. ¿Dónde empiezo? La primera pregunta en la que muchos de nosotros nos quedamos atascados es: ¿Por dónde empiezo? Después de haber pasado por varias reinvenciones personales y profesionales, he encontrado un gran valor en comenzar con una exploración profunda de mi jerarquía de valores. Consiste en las siguientes preguntas importantes: ¿Qué es importante para mi desarrollo emocional como persona? ¿Qué es importante para mis objetivos económicos? ¿Qué es importante para mis relaciones interpersonales y mi perspectiva social / ética? Los tres son igualmente importantes y deben considerarse de manera integral y práctica. Podemos dar un paso atrás y mirar nuestras vidas como eran antes del coronavirus y examinar si éramos felices y si nuestras finanzas sobrevivieron. En nuestra sociedad, parece que estamos perpetuamente ocupados, y para muchos de nosotros, este brote ha sido una parada difícil, lo que nos ha obligado a pasar tiempo con nuestros seres queridos, a sentirnos cómodos estando solos y a tomarnos un momento para pensar en las cosas que nos preocupan. realmente importa. Aprovechando este tiempo para pensar en cómo se mantuvo su situación financiera, pregúntese qué áreas se pueden mejorar. ¿Tenía suficientes ahorros en sus ahorros para cubrir un par de meses de facturas en caso de que lo suspendieran de su trabajo? ¿Notó cuánto menos dinero gastaba en cosas frívolas como su café matutino? Tomarse este tiempo para reflexionar y analizar a fondo sus hábitos de gasto y su bienestar fiscal lo ayudará a planificar el futuro y le brindará el conocimiento y las herramientas que necesita para tomar mejores decisiones después de que todo esto termine. Tener más tiempo libre también nos permite disfrutar de actividades cotidianas como leer, hacer yoga, hacer ejercicio, pintar, escuchar música, cocinar y reconectarnos con nuestros intereses. En lugar de sucumbir a la presión y la incertidumbre, abraza la quietud y vuelve a aprender a ser reflexivo. El hecho de que la pandemia sea trágica, y, por supuesto, ciertamente lo es, no significa que no sea también una gran oportunidad para pasar más tiempo juntos, hablar sin prisas y determinar cómo podemos continuar con esto en un entorno posterior al coronavirus. Puede haber maravillosas recalibraciones a considerar que nunca hubieran sido posibles durante la carrera de ratas de la vida llamada "normal" que solíamos conocer. Atravesar el ruido Todos deberíamos examinar las fortalezas de nuestras relaciones y familia para medir cómo estamos sobreviviendo como esposa, madre, amiga y / o mujer de negocios. En este estado de silencio, ¿qué valoramos y cómo lo priorizamos en medio del resto del ruido? Al contemplar esa respuesta, es importante no subestimar sus objetivos profesionales. A menudo, las mujeres asumirán que la libertad financiera y la ambición profesional son prioridades más bajas debido a las presiones sociales. Sin embargo, aunque somos libres de elegir otros valores como prioridades más altas, eso no significa que tengamos que hacerlo. Para ajustar su trayectoria profesional, aproveche esta oportunidad para aprender nuevas habilidades y perseguir intereses que han estado en un segundo plano. Internet está lleno de videos instructivos y plataformas de capacitación / redes de video que están a solo un clic o deslizar el dedo. Úselo como una herramienta para la reinvención, no solo como un vehículo para matar el tiempo mientras esperamos que la economía se reabra. Establezca metas financieras específicas y alcanzables, dando un paso a la vez para no sentirse abrumado y renunciar a su estrategia. y en frustración. Personalmente, estoy reconsiderando mi horario diario desde la época anterior al coronavirus. He estado dando una caminata de 4 a 5 millas al menos cuatro veces a la semana, y me comprometo a continuar con eso después de que reanudemos nuestra nueva vida normal. Voy a hacer del ejercicio una prioridad innegociable. Me aclara la mente y me da una actitud positiva. Es muy importante que tenga una buena nutrición, duerma regularmente, haga ejercicio físico con regularidad, tenga algo de tiempo libre, nutra su espíritu y se divierta con las personas positivas en su vida. Obtendrá muchos beneficios del cuidado personal intencional, y aumentará su energía y agudizará su enfoque financiero. Todos deberíamos mirar nuestras vidas como un todo y reflexionar sobre los cambios que podemos hacer para proporcionar un mejor mañana. En todo nuestro ajetreo, es demasiado fácil perder de vista lo que es realmente importante. La excusa "no tengo tiempo" ya no es una opción. Para mí, es salud, tiempo libre para perseguir mis intereses y mi familia. ¿Qué es importante para ti?

The past few months have been a real roller coaster ride in the stock market. Many people are fearful of the volatility in the stock market and are irrationally driven by fear to cash out of their strategy and become less inclined to invest in the future. In a March 2020 survey, over one third of adults reported that they were less likely to invest in the stock market based on what they knew about the coronavirus. Only 12 percent of respondents said they were more likely to invest. Hmmmm…. I think these statistics demonstrate panicked and NOT prudent decision making.

President Trump is speaking on TV with his team discussing governmental actions that are in process, the state of testing for the virus and all other matters related to addressing the coronavirus outbreak. After an up day in the market yesterday, it is down again today at this moment. Nobody can predict the market gyrations at this time, but we do know that markets don't like uncertainty and we do know there is a significant amount of fear and angst being felt by people due to uncertainty in strategy. Policymakers now seem to understand the gravitas of the situation, and, are moving forward with fiscal programs, monetary programs, and health initiatives. We may have to endure the situation for some time and experience the related financial pain, but this too will pass and we need to keep our faith and resolve to remain rational. I invite you to listen to this special issue of the Fiscal Feminist for more of my insights. Links mentioned in this episode: TheBahnsenGroup.com TheFiscalFeminist.com
