One thing that stuck out to me was how a lack of certain skills or knowledge played into keeping them poor in this position. If they'd known the salaries of other people they could have negotiated for more pay up front. Even once they knew they were the lowest paid person they weren't comfortable bringing it up and trying to negotiate for more. They lacked the confidence or people skills to ask for mentorship from the people they worked with. None of this is helped by the fact that being broke takes brain power just to get by so you can't apply that effort and energy into improving your situation. Many of us are lucky enough to have someone in our lives who could teach us these things. Is there a way we can make sure this kind of knowledge is passed on more equitably to help reduce intergenerational wealth gaps?
