STEP ONE: Get a clear grip of YOUR current financial situation I am sure there would be many better ideas and approaches that are from the reader’s experience and exposure to the financial world and specific to the cultural nuances that surround. A lot of what I am writing in the subsequent sections are my personal learning, mistakes made, and avoided. Well! Good for them and I am not getting into the debate on whether this is right or wrong, my intention to write this is for those women who “want to” or “have to” design their own financial destiny. So, I find a lot of the women I work with, many who have more than a decade or two of industry experience, have “left” all their financial aspects to the “man” in their life. Girls, growing up, are mostly told that the “man” would take care of them and it is the “man” who needs to get the bread to the table. Most of the material for women were assuming they have a secondary role tackling home budgets and health than personal finance. A decade ago, admittedly late in my life, when I started reading and learning about PFM, I found little to nothing in the Indian context that specifically addressed women, especially single women. F.I.R.E (Financial Independence Retire Early), investment, insurance, real estate, retirement and a myriad of personal financial management (PFM) terms are mostly addressing male readers providing examples, calculators, and clear specific advice.
