5 Historical Women Who Have Changed Money and What You Can Learn

What would the world look like if women had money rights from the start of time? I would imagine a very different world. Women have been pushing their way into equality for years. It was just 1963 when the Equal Pay Act was passed and1974 when the Equal Credit Opportunity Act made it illegal for credit card companies to discriminate against women. If you are a woman listening you know we still have a long way to go, but thanks to these 5 female pioneers our future is brighter. In this episode, in honor of International Women’s Day, I’m highlighting 5 historical women who have changed money and the takeaways you can apply to your life right now.
