Single Persons Women

Nearly one-third of all sexually experienced single women in the United States have changed their sexual behavior because they are worried about AIDS, federal health officials reported Tuesday. "It is encouraging that a substantial number of unmarried women at higher risk recognize the dangers of HIV infection and have taken positive steps to lessen that risk," said Dr. William Roper, director of the federal Centers for Disease Control.

Divorced and newly widowed women had best beware. There are hundreds of so-called financial advisers ready to help you spend your divorce settlement or life insurance proceeds. Some do not have your best interests at heart. These advisers--a few are nothing more than scam artists--prey on the suddenly single because they know that women in this position often feel helpless and incapable of dealing with their financial affairs. And feelings of helplessness aren't limited to the unsophisticated.
