Why is it more challenging for women to become financially security?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: Because the woman stereotypically has responsibility to raise the children, this may interfere with their careers meaning they may earn less money and contribute less money to their own retirement accounts, especially when they are younger. Statistically, women live longer than men so they are most likely to end up alone. Because they live longer they run out of retirement monies and rely on Social Security only. Many times they relied on their husbands to handle the family finances and they are naive as to what to do financially.

With fewer periods in a moving average, it will take longer to adjust to a new level of data values. 3. Qualitative forecasting methods are appropriate when historical data on the variable being forecast are either unavailable or not applicable. 4. A sequence of observations on a variable measured at successive points in time or over successive periods of time is known as a time series. 5.
