Free Book A Wealth of Information for Women
The Heinz Family Philanthropies and The Women’s Institute for a Secure Retirement (WISER) have published “What Women Need to Know About Retirement,” a 78-page e-book, available free here. The book contains information on retirement savings, Medicare, long-term care and features a chapter on unexpected events that is co-authored by Maria Cordone, Director of IAM Community Services and Retirees Department.  “Good planning can help a personal tragedy from becoming a financial disaster,” said Cordone, who co-wrote her chapter with WISER Chairman Jeffrey R. Lewis.  “Nothing can prevent the tragedies in life.  You can’t cheat death, accidents happen and not all jobs or marriages will last.  No one can predict the future, but this book can help women plan for the unexpected and help to ensure they are protected no matter what lies ahead.”  Founded in 1996, WISER provides women with basic information about the obstacles they face in establishing long-term financial security.  WISER also advocates changes that would reshape retirement policies that are a product of a bygone age when men were the primary bread winners and more employers offered traditional pension plans.  Those changes include finding ways not to penalize women who sacrifice retirement benefits by taking time off to care for children or elderly relatives.
