I got a lot out of this interview, particularly the discussion about retirement not being a stereotype, but rather an extension of the lifestyle one already enjoys. I have been retired for 10 years and have very much struggled with reality versus cultural expectations. I feel better about my choices now that I'm thinking about my uniqueness. This interview was a breath of fresh air, thank you for it.
Thank you so much for structuring this conversation through the lens of single women in one-income households(especially in NYC). It’s a perspective that’s so often overlooked and I love that you are turning up the volume on this theme too.
I would LOVE to see you and Jane host a retreat or workshop for single women living alone pondering future retirement. We could do some world-building or sci-fi writing about how our retirement years could be designed and the realities of how we might get there. I bet we could dream up incredible services, policies, community structures, and even infrastructure....
We need more of this. And I will join into this conversation with my over 60 crowd. Jane is brilliant. Thanks! PS. MORE WOMEN ON LINKED IN! And not to just sell us stuff we dont want.
This was great, thank you. This conversation will help women be less intimidated by finances. I’m in my mid 50s and have been financially literate most of my adult life. I use an app to track my income and expenses down to the penny. That data is illuminating and empowering and necessary for making choices. The app I use is called Fudget but there are lots out there. The urge to self-soothe with e-commerce is real and I did get a chuckle that at the end of a newsletter on money anxiety there was a link to an expensive Armani lipstick. The struggle is real! 😊
Thank you for the inspiration. I am a single-income household with no family money and a writing habit. 😻

Love the idea of a workshop or the like. I feel like I know so many women struggling with the same thing.
Good god did I appreciate the hell out of this. 🤑
I'm glad!
