Or as her mother used to say, \"I buy my girls Calvin Klein clothes... Then when they graduate from college, they have to figure out how to pay for them themselves.\" In order to keep herself in Calvin, Karen went to work on Wall Street. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs a woman working in finance she noticed numerous ways that she and her female colleagues sabotaged themselves both professionally and personally. Why were her friends unable to bring the same logic they applied at work to personal decisions? Why did they often let personal baggage undermine them in the office in a way that her male colleagues never did? A classic illustration is that women tend to Poll (Do I look good in these shoes?) rather than Decide, often giving too much weight to the input from a random stranger rather than rely on their own gut. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCovering three major topics (Career, Money, Love), Finerman's Rules serves up unvarnished advice about getting ahead in your career, overcoming failure, meeting your ideal mate, and navigating the challenges of work-life balance. Most importantly, she offers the reader a crash course in taking control of her financial destiny. Or as Karen puts it, \"You wouldn't let a man tell you where to live, how to vote, or what to wear. Then tell me why 80 percent of women have a man in charge of their money?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karen Finerman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1455514489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781455514489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Business Plus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.16h x 6.25w x 1.05d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Axiom Business Book Awards - Silver Medal Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/29\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2013 pg. 8","brand":"Karen Finerman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44070147686655,"sku":"9781455514489","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed4b9ae3-354e-4e2e-bacf-244b890c4320.jpg?v=1685428638","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/finermans-rules-karen-finerman-9781455514489","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
