The Current Financial System
Does Not Work For Women
We want to get an effective financial plan into the hands of 1 million Canadian women in the next four years.
Our courses give women greater control over their ‘now money’ and helps them plan for a greater amount of ‘future money.’
This is particularly important because of the wage gap between men and women, earnings expectations and the reality of women's longer retirements. It has created a huge wealth gap between retired men and women, where about 40% of women live at or below the poverty line in retirement.
Untangle Money focuses on the everyday middle-income woman - her goals, concerns and achievements. Unlike the traditional advisors and wealth management companies that focus on clients with investable assets of $500k+, Untangle Money focuses on you - just the way you are.
We will help you understand all the important aspects of your financial journey so you can always make the best decisions for you.
