So, I was listening to the radio on my way in to work this morning and one of those annoying morning shows was on. You know how some of the commercials are done by the hosts of the show?

Well, the female host was doing the shilling for some local wealth management firm. She opens with, "Women are the most vulnerable to not having sufficient assets for retirement." I know, I could do several paragraphs on just that statement alone, but wait, what she said next is the punch line!

The next words out of her mouth were, "This is due to many factors, all of which are beyond our control." When I heard this I actually laughed out loud in my car. That's right gents, women not having sufficient assets to retire is due entirely to factors completely beyond their control.

Gee, I never knew that women were being forced to not save money and to spend beyond their means using credit. Someone should really look in to that.

Anyway, just thought you gents might get a laugh out of that as I did.
