When Your Gender Costs You Half a Million Dollars

Here's a number that should make you pause: $400,000. That's how much less the average woman will earn compared to her male counterpart over a lifetime. Not because she works less hard. Not because she's less qualified. Simply because she's a woman. This staggering wealth gap persists even as we celebrate progress in women's rights, lurking beneath headlines about equal pay and glass ceilings. The "feminization of poverty" isn't just a catchy academic phrase-it's the lived reality for millions. Women constitute the majority of the world's poor, are more likely to be unemployed, and when they do work, they're often trapped in vulnerable positions. In South Asia, men are three times more likely to have "good jobs." Even in wealthy nations, the pattern holds: 45% of single British parents live in poverty, and 90% of those parents are women.
