The Rise of Women and Wealth: Our Fight for Freedom, Equality, and Control of Our Financial Future

by Cindy Couyoumjian, R.F. Georgy (Contributor)

Cindy Couyoumjian—founder of Cinergy Financial, with over 36 years of experience—is on a mission to empower women to stop being spectators and enter the financial arena; to stand up and assert their inalienable right to financial self-determination. Although today in the US, women are making gains in higher education, hold corporate positions, and are successful leaders, men still control most of the household wealth. 

Yet women are powerful agents of change with boundless potential in the financial realm. In The Rise of Women and Wealth, Cindy shows that by confronting America’s patriarchal past, women can 


become financially literate; 
reclaim the power and liberty that have been taken away; 
embrace a financial future filled with endless possibilities; 
strongly affirm, “Yes, I can.” 

Women everywhere must find the courage, strength, and inspiration to move forward by understanding the past. Cindy’s message is a hopeful one, filled with intuitive truths about a brighter tomorrow for women and their financial power and freedom.

I was fascinated by the detailed United States History, which illustrated the impact of robber barons and the feminist movement. Learning about Frances Perkins, FDR's Secretary of Labor, was interesting. Great insights on the future of women in finance!

"Empowered women empower women" is a guiding principle that I hold in high regard. Cindy Couyoumjian is a remarkable example of an empowered woman who actively empowers other women. From my perspective, women are taking the lead in reshaping the financial landscape and seizing control of their financial destinies. Despite significant progress made over the past five decades, it's evident that a significant portion of household wealth remains predominantly in the hands of men, highlighting the enduring influence of a patriarchal world.

One should not underestimate the importance of "The Rise of Women and Wealth: Our Fight for Freedom, Equality, and Control of Our Financial Future" by Cindy Couyoumjian. This book is a treasure trove of information, offering essential insights for readers who seek to deepen their understanding of the ongoing feminist revolution and actively contribute to it. It places a strong emphasis on addressing the gender disparities that persist in the financial world.

In essence, the book's message embodies the positive changes unfolding in the realm of finance and women's empowerment, encouraging readers to actively support and champion the financial independence of women.

Not as advertised

Based upon the title of this book, I figured this would contain stories of where women started out having no way to make money, and how we can close the wage gap. Possibly a history of the finances/wealth of women. Explain how we had to fight for the advancements we have made, and explain what else needs to be done. Maybe explain how it is more expensive to live as a female in modern times; discuss the Pink Tax… perhaps educate women about finance or economics. Nope. Not really. Just droning on and on about politics, big business, law, and how they are all in bed together. Nothing about this would help educate anyone.
