Dear Hoosiers:
Thank you for reading the Indiana Secretary of
State’s e-magazine. The purpose of this publication
is to provide Hoosiers with timely tips and information
on smart money management and investment fraud
prevention.
March is Women’s History Month, so in this edition, we’ve highlighted some of the financial issues women face in their lifetimes. Our “Women in Transition” article examines the way our relationship with money can change over time. Some changes are planned, but others blindside us. I’ve tackled a few financial challenges in my own life. From running a business with my husband, Jack, to running for office as your 61st Indiana Secretary of State, to running a household as the mother of two. We women can accomplish great things when we handle money confidently and prepare for the unexpected.
This edition of our e-magazine also offers tips for spring cleaning your home and wallet, and we provide you with important reminders as you file your taxes. It’s my hope that the Indiana MoneyWise e-magazine boosts your ability to effectively handle whatever financial issues come your way.
Sincerely,
Connie Lawson
Indiana Secretary of State
