Gary_Yngve Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Is it possible to become a billionaire without being a bastard and fucking people over? Or is being a billionaire more a question of entrepreneurship, risk, and irrational drive? Are these traits more likely for males to have? Genetic or cultural or both? Certainly there are fewer women who are tenured science professors or are alpinists. The former category is a hot topic of study and debate. The debate of the latter seems to be are they hot? Family/kids puts a higher burden on women than men in the workforce, both in societal expectations and the whole pregnancy thing. There's also years of prior male domination and sexism that still needs breaking through. What could be done to promote women billionaires? Many universities are actively trying to attract and keep more women in the sciences. But universities are far more socialistic than the capitalism that creates billionaires. Quote

archenemy Posted March 9, 2007 Author Posted March 9, 2007 Cool! Is it just me or does Maria Aramburuzabala look a lot like Heidi Fleiss? Quote
minx Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 i'm sort of disappointed. i was hoping for so much more for this thread. i think Heidi Fleiss was a billionaire and then she had to pay taxes and fines and now she's just a millionaire. Quote
G-spotter Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 "Aramburuzabala" sounds like something you should say when you pull a rabbit out of a hat. Quote
