Women in Investing: How to Take Charge of Your Financial Future

Career Professionals

Balancing a growing career, finances, and family can be challenging. This example shows how we helped a career-oriented couple re-orient their thinking about money.

Opportunity

One of our advisors was introduced to a newly married career-professional couple. The couple built their respective careers and accumulated substantial debt—a nice home, stylish cars, and credit card bills. When their first child was born, they reduced their working hours, and subsequently, the combined household income decreased.

Solution

We built a comprehensive financial plan that emphasized financial mastery and setting attainable short-term goals. Our advisor demonstrated how making required minimum payments on their credit card debt would impact their continuing financial security. We also helped the new parents open their first retirement accounts and purchase comprehensive insurance plans.

Outcome

The family made positive changes in their financial behavior. In just six months, they eliminated their $40,000 credit card debt. And when she received a year-end bonus, rather than spending it on Christmas gifts as they would have done previously, they applied it to their new, longer-term financial goals.

Next Steps

Learn how Greenwood Capital’s comprehensive and personal approach can help you achieve your unique wealth goals, not only in the short-term, but also set a foundation for the long-term.
