All about the world of Wall Street.
The WSJ is NOT Journalism - Here's why.
This article is in reply to [some of] the WSJ documentary on the future of global trade and the global supply chain. To reply to the entire thing will take more than one article because I couldn't get two minutes into it without already identifying a slew of propaganda, and claims that were either incorrect, dangerous, or terrifying.

3 Ways Female Founders Can Realign the Capital Landscape
Relative to world entrepreneurship, the proverbial glass ceiling has been shattered. This amid reports revealing facts that almost half of the entrepreneurs worldwide—252 million—are women. As brilliant as that metric is, it’s curious that Census Bureau Annual Business Survey reporting cites that a mere 20.9% (1.2 million) of U.S. companies are women-owned.

How To Make Money Investing
If you are like me you probably spent the bulk of your childhood in school. And if you are like me you also probably spent the bulk of your time in school being told that you had to do good in class so that you could “get into a good college” or “get a good job.” From the time we are young, we are ingrained with the “what do you want to be when you grow up” mentality. The funny thing is that by the time we grow up we usually become more and more uncertain about what we want to be. Most of us decide that we don't want to be anything at all or that what we want to be can't support our material needs, so we settle for something that pays the bills.
