Special Deals

1. Ellevest

Give the gift of financial advice specifically tailored to women this holiday season. Gender neutral investing, which defaults to men’s salaries, career paths, preferences and lifespans, fails women. When looking at investments, the gender pay gap compounds over time, and women in retirement are left with less than their male counterparts.

Help your women friends close that gap with Ellevest. They will suggest how much you should contribute based on your financial profile, a gender-specific salary curve & your goal targets, which will help you reach your goals or better in 70% of markets. They will also work to change the environmental landscape by helping you invest up to half of your portfolio in companies that power positive social change by advancing women.

Plus, this holiday season, Ellevest will give you $50 when you sign up to be an Ellevest client and put $50 in your account -- what a great way to invest in women!

Innovative Ideas for Busy Women

7. Own it — By Sallie Krawcheck

Success for professional women isn’t about playing men’s version of the career game anymore. Instead, it’s about embracing and investing in our innate strengths as women - and bringing them proudly and unapologetically, to work. When we do, we gain the power to advance in our careers in more natural ways. We gain the power to initiate courageous conversations in the workplace. We gain the power to forge non-traditional career paths; to leave companies that don’t respect our worth, and instead, go start our own. And we gain the power to invest our economic muscle in making our lives, and the world, better.

In her Wall Street Journal and Washington Post Bestseller, Krawcheck draws on her experiences at the highest levels of business, both as one of the few women at the top rungs of the biggest boy’s club in the world, and as an entrepreneur, to show women how to seize this seismic shift in power to take their careers to the next level. If you know a woman who is poised for success, this gift is the perfect guide.

This change is real, and it’s coming fast. It’s time to own it.
