Companies that put a mandated parental leave in place save money in the first year, FIRST YEAR. Because they don't have to hire to replace the woman.

Nothing bad happens when women are in positions of power.

I'm really putting my life towards helping women to invest, and there's a circular reference here because if women can invest and give themselves the opportunity to earn higher returns, they can start those businesses. They can go to work with a little more confidence to ask for that promotion, to ask for the new assignment, etc.
Sallie Krawcheck
I would say one of the reasons that women don't invest to the same extent that men do, is because we still think of it in some ways as a male pursuit.
