  • Will You Be Replaced by Someone Cheaper? It's the Great Salary Reset
    Jul 17 2024
    We got a “tip” back in March (all right, fine, it was Henah’s friend) that a major US employer with hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue might be quietly “resetting” their workforce’s wages. But upon further digging, we weren’t able to find much—so we asked all of you instead, and found an interesting trend unfolding quietly across industries.

  • Is Credit to Blame for Our Financial Complacency?
    Jul 15 2024
    In this week's Rich Girl Roundup, Rich Girl Carolynn responds to our most recent full episode on cognitive dissonance asking if access to large amounts of credit is inadvertently keeping everyone complacent, rather than fighting against wealth inequality.

  • The Cognitive Dissonance of "Getting Rich" and Imagining a Better "American Dream"
    Jul 3 2024
    I recently wrote an article reflecting on the fact that an awareness of the systems you exist within can empower you to make even savvier individual decisions for yourself. But sometimes, when you’re carving out a safe, secure, full life under capitalism, the thing that’s better for you makes things worse for others. So it leads me to this question: How do we have a good relationship with money in an uncertain world, and how do we stay true to our ethical code while taking care of ourselves and our futures? I wanted to invite two people I admire—feminist writer Caroline Burke and author, artist, and bookkeeper Paco de Leon—to talk about it more.

  • Yes, You Might Be Saving *Too Much* for Retirement
    Jun 26 2024
    You might be saving too much for retirement, if you aren't factoring in Social Security. But Social Security is the subject of a lot of pessimism, with many claiming "It'll run out by 2035!" The problem with this sentiment? It’s actually misleading. So what are the implications for your future, and more importantly, your financial independence number? We'll dive into the future of Social Security, how it works, and whether you’d be better off taking home those wages and investing them yourself—and you'll probably leave you feeling really good about your own progress.
