Become Financially Educated # 4: Read Financial Magazines and Newspapers

There is a plethora of financial literature available in magazines and newspapers such as the Investor's Business Daily and The Wall Street Journal. Subscribing to these and to local business journal newspapers and magazines will help you keep a finger on the pulse of the latest investment and financial news. Most Solana Beach financial planners begin their day by perusing this literature, so if it's good for them, it's good for you!

Become Financially Educated # 5: Talk to Stock, Real Estate and Business Brokers

These professionals are extremely valuable resources, which you should tap into for information and advice. Just be careful and remember at the end of the day their advice will likely be geared at trying to get you to buy something, so take it with a pinch of salt. In my experience, the more successful a broker is, the more open they are to sharing their experience and education with someone else, so take full advantage.

Become Financially Educated # 6: Speak to Other Investors

Do you have an idea of what you'd like to invest in? Are you considering purchasing artwork and antiques or putting those savings into stocks and bonds? Find people who are already investing in the assets you are contemplating and see what they have to say. Successful antique and art dealers and other successful investors are typically very happy to share their knowledge with others and their experience can prove extremely valuable to you.

Become Financially Educated # 7: Join an Investment Club for Women

You're not the only female Solana Beach resident who would, given the chance, like to learn more about Solana Beach wealth management and investment! In fact, the majority of investment clubs are owned and run by women for women. You've got to be aware of the agenda of these clubs, though. Some have formed with the goal of pooling money and investing it together. The kinds of stock market investment clubs you should be on the look out for are those that promote education and the sharing of experience, advice and information. If you don't find what you're looking for in your neighborhood, here's an idea... start your own club!

Become Financially Educated # 8: Become a CASHFLOW Club Member

CASHFLOW is a fun, entertaining and educational app that you can easily download onto your smartphone. It's become so popular, in fact, that several clubs have sprung up around the world, which act as forums for CASHFLOW fans and enable members to chat about their investment goals, share advice and information and even occasionally host guest speakers. Join your local CASHFLOW group and if there isn't one near you, then get online and start playing it for free! Wealth management education has never been this fun for Solana Beach women.
