Summary
"...the deepest reason for the self-deprecation and uncertainty of rich women may be the simplest: the closer we are to power, the more passive we must be kept. Intimacy and access make rebellion very dangerous."
In The Problem with Rich Women, Gloria Steinem explores how and why feminism failed to reach women in powerful families, and provides an urgent and persuasive argument for rebellion among upper-class women. The Problem with Rich Women was originally published in Ms., June 1986.

Everything by Steinem is worth reading...
... This is no exception. I listened to it twice and know I'll come back to it often.

Snapshot from the 80s
Lots of great ideas here, but for a time in the past. I do think women inherit family businesses quite a lot now.

Profound and Unorthodox!
A timeless account for Steinem there! Amazing performance, very enlightening on a demographic and perspective so often ignored. A must listen!
