Sesame Street Bigwig Elmo Explains Personal Finance
Thursday, April 21st, 2011
[annoying voice] Hi, I’m Elmo! I know more about personal finance than most Americans, and I’m a 3-year-old puppet!

Monday, December 27th, 2010In Pakistan, women are beginning to leave the confines of their homes to enter the labor force for the first time. You can meet some of them and hear their stories by clicking play.
Unfortunately, it’s not all progress and economic prosperity – Pakistan has an entrenched culture of male dominance that says women shouldn’t be seen OR heard. Women who work in public are routinely harassed and even beaten up by their male family members and strangers.
But how awesome would it be if Pakistan opened up its economy to the other half of the population? Talk about doubling your productivity and improving millions of lives.
