Fort Lauderdale, FL– March 23, 2015 – Grant Conness and Andrew Costa, Co-Founders of Global Wealth Management, a Fort Lauderdale-based financial planning firm, recently published an article on their website titled “Seeing Through the Glass Ceiling” http://askglobalwealth.com/blog/?p=85 giving tips to women who face unique challenges when it comes to retirement planning due to the continued inequalities in pay between men and women.

Grant and Andrew write, “According to the U.S. Department of Labor, in 2013, women make 77 cents on the dollar compared to men. This number has not budged in almost a decade. Without standing too tall or speaking too loudly on our soapbox, let’s just set the record straight from the beginning—there is a gender pay gap but there shouldn’t be. Unfortunately, since there is, it means women have even more challenges when it comes to retirement planning then men.”
