At the programme, Megha Jain said “according to a survey”, nearly 50 % of non-working women mostly in tier two cities did not feel financially independent.
She said the survey found that one in every four women indicated social or family restriction or lack of guidance from home as a barrier. In this regard, Toina Kinimi encouraged the people present, to be aware of their finances as self-dependency was as important as being aware of financial savings.
Further, she encouraged the participants to start taking one step at a time and that age was just a number.
Sharing her experiences as an entrepreneur, Toina Kinimi encouraged the participants to learn to take charge of one’s assets and to invest in learning.
The entrepreneur also advised them to keep themselves upgraded and to learn the benefits of saving by learning their assets and liabilities.
