What I have been reading - 19th June 2019
Women did everything right. Then work got 'greedy': This echoes what I see in Cayman. According to this article, three-quarters of men in the top 1 percent of earners have an at-home spouse whilst just a quarter of women in the top 1 percent of earners do. I would love to know the statistics in Cayman for this. I suspect it's more extreme here. This creates a huge bias in the workplace. "Women don't step back from work because they have rich husbands. They have rich husbands because they step back from work."
Stay in the game: This article comes straight from the heart. Going through this is every parents' worst nightmare.
Why everyone should lift weights: Another non-money related article, but as a lifter I love this message. I have often tried to put into words what CrossFit has done for me and how it contributes to every part of my life. James Clear explains it far better than I could here. "You are on this planet to do amazing things, and I honestly believe that lifting weights can help you do those things better."
How to win any argument about the stock market: The markets swing wildly. You can make any point you wish about any asset if you pick your start and finish date accordingly.
Making sense of your money after a divorce: Here is a great no-nonsense guide for women going through a divorce.
AND FINALLY:
Piece of crap car: Thinking about buying a new car? You will want to read this first.
ENJOY!
