Sallie’s Opinion

Your Milestones and Money Wins in 2021

It’s peak year-in-review season. And if 2021 has taught us anything, it’s that plenty can happen in a year. (2021 certainly had “range.”) Perhaps most importantly: It was a year in which money stress made women literally sick.

But here’s the good news. You aren’t just “still standing.” You’re taking action on your money and career, in ways that can allow you to live the life your grandmother could only dream about.

And here’s what I want to pin to 2021 — your wins.

CO-FOUNDER & CEO

‘Tis the season to give back 🎁

Some festive facts: 31% of annual giving occurs in December. Also, on average, women are more likely to give more, more often than men. So we wanted to know, do you currently factor charitable donations into your budget? Here’s what you said:

YES, I DO

43%


NO, BUT I SHOULD		57%

“Advocating for and mentoring other women might be one of the most powerful ways to give back as we head into 2022.”

– CEO Sallie Krawcheck on the tremendous power of giving.
