@fantastic.f.o.r: It’s hard to have a healthy relationship with money when you can’t even keep it in your bank account. Something happens during the midday work crash. Things get hazy and debit cards get used. Sure we deserve a treat for not calling in sick for work but not even girl math can create an equation that justifies a chunk of your salary missing before the month is halfway through. According to theGuardian.com one in five women are shopaholics.I'm sure you’ve come across jokes that play on the outdated notion that women struggle with financial management. This sentiment completely disregards how women’s negative relationship with money came to be. According to sahistory.org.za after WW1 women made their way into the labor market by default. Due to the state of the economy. Prior to this it was not common for women to be employed in what was deemed as male dominated spaces. So up until that point women in Africa had lived by the means that their husbands or male family members had provided. Giving no room for financial freedom or time to gain any form of financial literacy. #relatable #officehumour #spendingmoney #womensmonth #financialindependence
