More Women Say That said Jago Investments

After a Financial Planner Financial Planner alias / Financial Advisor for more than 15 years in the United States (U.S.) and in Indonesia, I find the results of research in the U.S. stated that it turns out oh turns out, women are better at investing than men. The question is why is this so?
We may not agree with this statement, but it turns out the results of research in the U.S. by Vanguard Investment shows that between 2007 and 2009, men were more sell their investments (mainly shares) when prices are falling, while women hold more themselves not to sell its investment. Which occurs when conditions turn these women get higher investment returns than men.
So what really happens is, although men are more confident when investing especially aggressive type of investment products such as stocks, it turns out it could be a "backfire". Many men feel or "pretend" feel to know and understand what they are doing when investing.
High ego often makes men do not want to admit that they do not know or admit that they made a mistake in investing or error in making a decision to invest.
Meanwhile, the effect of different women. Many women feel and pleaded not understand and do not understand when investing so that eventually they then many ask to and fro to seek help and answers to their ignorance.
Well, the results of the concluded by asking them so that they can make investment decisions based on input from a variety of sources. The result can be seen, more women take more informed decisions, especially in the current market conditions as poor and panic when markets drop.
That's in the U.S., how about in Indonesia? The fact says more than 50% of household finances in Indonesia held or even run by women (wives). Clients who come to our office was in the AFC Financial can be said to be 80% of his starts from the women, though for the purchase of goods / major asset, the term big purchase, such as homes and cars, the majority of the decision remains in the hands of men (husbands).
So, for the men aka man, do not be embarrassed to admit that you do not understand and make mistakes and do not be shy to ask questions and seek information from the right people. Turns maxim 'Ask a shame err on the Road' is still valid you know. Do not let the incident 'Ask a shame err on the Stock Exchange' yes.
