Shocking and brilliant 5***** Reader Review Did you know? Nearly 70% of Britain s homeless are women. There are more men called Dave running the UK s top 100 companies than there are women altogether. Women outperform men educationally at every level from high school to PhD - but still get paid less. In this astonishing dissection of the gender wealth gap, financial journalist Annabelle Williams explains why so few women rank among the super-rich and why women are the majority of those in poverty. From the personal - feeling financially confident and liberated - to the political - demanding systemic support and representation - this ground-breaking exposé will empower your financial decisions and arm you with the knowledge needed to demand equality. It is refreshing to see Williams challenge well-worn sexist myths, and Annabelle Williams uncovers the realities of money in the modern world, and what exactly we can do about the fact that women are poorer than men. Stylist Goes beyond talks of glass ceilings and gender pay gaps to a more nuanced look at the institutional oppression faced by women on a daily basis.
