Sallie's Opinion

A Moment to Reflect

 

It’s the gratitude time of year. And before I sign off to head with my crew down south to join my sister — and her girls and my parents and all of the cousins and all of their partners — for some turkey, oyster stuffing, and potato kugel (my grandmother’s recipe), I want to share how grateful I am.

For all of you. For the hard-working and mission-driven Ellevest team. For all of the investors in Ellevest — ranging from the individual investors, primarily from underrepresented groups who made up such a large portion of our last fundraise, to our institutional investors.

We are all fighting, in our own ways, to change the status quo. And at the same time — in the midst of the fight — we can take a moment to recognize the good fortune we do have.

Thank you to all of you,

120 Businesses Owned by Native American Women

We know the real story (stories) of Thanksgiving by now. But November is Native American Heritage Month, and Native American women still earn just 57 cents for every dollar a white man makes. How are we giving thanks this week, you ask? By lifting up — and materially supporting — some of these awesome Native American artists, entrepreneurs, and thinkers.

Five people were murdered and another 25 injured in a shooting at a Colorado LGBTQIA+ nightclub over the weekend. Here are some of the verified fundraisers where you can support the victims, their families (found or otherwise), and the queer community in Colorado Springs.

The data continues to confirm what we already knew: Women portfolio managers are outperforming their male colleagues this year.

“It was never the intention to breastfeed the nation.” — A legendary quote from Vigdis Finnbogadóttir, the world’s first woman elected president, when she was asked how she would lead Iceland after having breast cancer. Lots of equally good stuff in this retrospective on her career.

A bit of good news for non-homeowners: Rent growth may be slowing down. (Good news for economists and the Fed, too — it’s a major indicator of overall inflation.)
