Inspirational (financial) women

This past week I’ve had a slough of inspiration from women that I didn’t realize I admired so much.  While it’s not much about economics, I feel like sharing

” It’s four o’clock, do you know where your money is?”
-Maria Bartiromo (she’s on my desktop right now!)

You can’t help but be mesmerized by her presence on CNBC, where she’s worked since 1993.

 

Erin Burnett, the other “money honey”

Graduated Williams College, worked at Goldman Sachs, then made her path through different media outlets to finally being a rather newbie to CNBC.

 

Anna Schwartz, somewhat lost under the shadow of Milton Friedman

Received her master’s in economics at the age of 19 from Columbia University, it wasn’t long before she joined the National Bureau of Economc Research;  she joined Milton Friedman in writing ”A Monetary History of the United States,” which I’ll soon be getting to reading (it’s making for nice decoration on my desk!).

 

I swear I had more women I looked up to.  I think I’m just forcing it too much.  There are people in my life daily that I admire, but I’ll keep that to myself

Who gives you inspiration?
