The Ice Prince: On the Rink and On Stage
Our parents always told us to dream big as a child, no matter how crazy it was. Whether it was wanting to become an astronaut and landing on Mars, or becoming a famous actor with 5 Oscars to your name, they would entertain your musings and tell you to reach for the stars. 8-year-old Park Sunghoon wasn’t an exemption to this; once upon a time, he was an awkward boy who tried figure skating to improve his social skills.

Beyond the Numbers: Understanding the Societal Impact of Gender Disparities in Financial Literacy
Beyond the Numbers: Understanding the Societal Impact of Gender Disparities in Financial Literacy Although women have made great progress in the last few decades toward full equality, more needs to be done. The gender pay disparity in Europe is 12.7%. They are more likely to work in fields where wages are low and to encounter discrimination at work.

It is important to understand women's level of financial understanding and address any gaps in financial skills.
