The average A m e RIGA n
housewife spend between Is
and So percent of the family
income each year, thus indi-
eating what our giant corpora.
tons must make and what
our storekeepers must sell.
Yet the typical housewife
seems to feel that investing is
a mans work.
Since women generally out
live their husbands and are
left with the problem of han.
ding. the family fortune. it is
only right that a wife should
have access to information
about the family's insurance,
anuities or endowments, and
other investments.
She should know what Sc
curities are held and for what
purpose-are they for growth?
Are they part of the retire
ment program? Or have they
been set aside to pay for flu.
