Call it fallacy! Or the basic irony of nature! Women live longer life than men but take least care for their livelihood.
Throughout their lifetime they devote on the welfare of others, nurture and nourish their families and pay lowest attention on their profile.
Is this true for women walking out of the daily chores of life in the rush of professionalism? Do professional women have a changed outlook?
Yes, changes are there but thinking of retirement strategies at the onset of their careers is a farfetched thing.
Most women don’t even know what they are supposed to get from their employers. Their ignorance paves the path for their exploitations.
Women are best known for running household budget but when it comes to the professional front they are wiped out.
Why? They live more, don’t get well paid jobs and above all they are not conscious about future investments.
But if they plan out in a strategic manner, they can easily take the lead in this sphere too. Just some additional spice to their intellect can turn things in the right direction. Then try out! What makes you lag behind now?
