Héloïse Bolle, author of the book “Aux Thunes, Citoyennes. At work and at home, take power over your money” published by Alisio, encourages women to take care of their finances, an area often reserved for men.
We talk a lot about the budget these days, and often it is women who are at the forefront of shopping and managing current expenses, but they are not always the best equipped!
Héloïse Bolle, founder of Oseille & Compagnie, a wealth and financial education consulting firm, the author of the book At Thunes, Citizens. At work and at home, take power over your money, published by Alisio offers many tips. In particular, to ask for a raise, because women often don’t dare. “And when they ask for it, they are less likely to get it”explains Héloise Bolle, eco guest of franceinfo Wednesday, February 22.
In private, in the couple, too, talking about money is often taboo. Beware of injustice.
“Women are often the ones who spend part-time, put their careers on hold for the family, or follow their spouse when he is transferred. They neglect their financial security.”

Héloise Bolle evokes “ a black hole of skills, between 35 and 50 years old. In other words, women, so monopolized by their mental load, forget, do not take the time to manage their money, and to invest”. And that’s a mistake because that’s often when they make the most money. And above all, men do not make this impasse.
Finally, retirement, “women’s pensions are still 40% lower than men’s”recalls Heloïse Bolle. “Preparing it is therefore even more important for them.”
