Why Tonka Beans?

The unfortunate reality is that many women are ill prepared, misinformed or lack the financial know-how to manage increasingly critical personal money matters and investing decisions. If these trends continue, more than ever, women will be retiring in poverty. Studies show that 90% of women feel they lack the knowledge or confidence to manage their money. Only about 13% of women actively invest in securities and worse, women are retiring with about 50% of the annual revenue of a man. While the Internet disseminates a wealth of information on investing and personal money management matters, much of it remains unsuited for women s needs. Why? It s shear volume, complexity (or exaggerated simplicity) and lack of contextual relevance is overwhelming for all but the most dedicated woman. Tonka Beans hopes to raise women s interest, knowledge and confidence on personal money management to help you take control over your money and secure a worry free future.
