re: Ignoring Women Costs Finance Firms $700 Billion a Year

Based on what has been said in the thread, the idea seems to be that men spend X amount per year in financial products and account for 90% of those sales.
Bringing them to 50-50 would mean new sales of Y amount to women.
Problem with a lot of this, IMHO, is that I think a lot of financial products are sold to family units and men are just the lead individual on those transactions.
My wife and I have a financial portfolio but she doesn’t know or care a whit about what’s in it, just what the dollar amount is at the end of the day.
In short, I think there are some logical fallacies at play because there may be a way to increase sales of financial products to women but $700m a year is a pie in the sky number. A lot of women are already being serviced by these products but aren’t the owner of record on them.
