Video transcript - Women can become more familiar with the financial choices they have

​​​

[MUSIC PLAYING]

When I see women get into a divorce situation and they just realized, actually I do not have a retirement account balance under my name. Because the husband, as income earner, company provided 401(k) plan, they've been using that 401(k) plan to contribute to husband retirement accounts.

But the women because they do not have income, they are not even aware as long as you have a household income you can have your own IRA account. So less education, women are not familiar with the financial choices they have.
