Talking Pensions to Fuck You Funds: Women Breaking the Money Taboo | Elisabeth Prager

from Light the Campfire · host Hedda Rehnberg and Lise Pretorius

Statistically women invest their money less than men.However, when they do, they outperform men. Why is it then that women invest less? What would it take to ensure women engage more with their financial futures and why is this so important to talk about it? Much of the issue (alongside many historical and structuralfactors) lies in the fact that women talk less about $$$ amongst themselves.It’s for this reason we’re so excited to have Elisabeth Prager around the campfire. With a background in insurance and pensions, private banking, consulting and founding a fintech to close the gender wealth gap, Elisabeth helps women overcome the many barriers that block them from these important conversations. In a time where people live longer and can expect less public pension support ahead, this talk couldn’t be more important.Together we explore how to think about financial futures,how to divide our salaries, how to educate our children to be responsible, how to learn from each other, and more.
