Tip/opinion re: women & finances: Don’t be afraid to try new things. Investments can be viewed as a male dominated “interest/field” but my one tip would to try, get our hands dirty, and learn from experience. Find an advisor that you trust and be fearless about what you want to invest in, whether it’s real estate or other investment strategies!
