WSJ Your Money Briefing · Gender Pay Gap Begins Shortly After College Graduation, Data Shows · 9 Aug 2022 podcast

And if you want to be closing the gender pay gap across people's careers, you need to be closing it at the start. matched

That gap is not going to get narrower as people work their way through their careers. matched

It also calls into question kind of whose fault this is, right? matched

It's employers who are making their salary bids for new employees, for new hires. matched

But can career services offices at schools be doing more? matched

Can they mandate that companies list their starting salaries for campus recruiting and actually stick to it? matched

Can career advisors be getting different training to make sure that they're not accidentally steering women in one direction and men in another? matched

There are kind of a lot of elements at play here, and this helps reinforce the need to continue studying it because this gap hasn't gone away. matched

Thank you. matched

WSJ Your Money Briefing · Applying for College Financial Aid: How It Works and Mistakes to Avoid · 27 Apr 2022 podcast

There's this assumption that it's kind of arbitrary in a black box, and it's not. matched

But that doesn't mean that it's straightforward and spits out a number that you think is fair, right? matched

What a family thinks they can afford is often quite different from what a financial aid letter will tell you they think you can afford. matched

It feels invasive for a lot of families to have to kind of open up their bank accounts, open up their files and tell somebody, here's how much money we make. matched

Here's how much money we spend. matched

Here's how much we think we can afford. matched

And here's how much you think we can afford. matched

So it's invasive. matched

It also is a time consuming process. matched

You have to pull a lot of numbers, pull a lot of records. matched

Fill out a lot of forms. matched
