Women's History On Wall Street– Paulina Bren, Author of "She Wolves: The Untold History of Women on Wall Street," Professor at Vassar College

"Obviously that question of women, money, and wealth changed over time….We don't talk about women wanting money all that much…Women were excited to become gradually big earners, but they treated money very differently. They treated money as a way to create protection for themselves and their family, as a way to create a legacy that would continue. They were not into big spending as much…. What I hadn't realized was to what extent these early women…were saying, "I was the only woman in the room," and they had tremendous ramifications for how they had to function on Wall Street because they were the only woman in the room." Paulina Bren on Electric Ladies Podcast

Women are embracing their financial and professional power today more than ever, which began decades ago with the women who were first to break into the male-dominated Wall Street financial sector.  That power is about to expand exponentially as women are poised to control over 50% of global wealth for the first time ever soon - with a huge portion of the great wealth transfer's $124 trillion. So, it's a great time to see how women's Wall Street power began and where it's going.
