Molly Benjamin was not very good with money despite working in the financial sectors for national and international companies for most of her career. In fact, over a glass of prosecco with her gal pals she realised they were all a bit #clueless when it came to their personal finances. As an experiment, Molly put on an info-night in her living room. Thus was born Ladies Finance Club:

"Women make really good investors when we know how, because we have our goals and we stick to them. You know, I think it's like the University of Warwick, they've all done these studies, which show women make really good investors and they can actually outperform men. But the difference I see is, and I say this across Australia and the UK as well is women like to have cash, they like the safety of cash. They like to know that it's there, if an emergency happens and you know, when women you've got a family, you've got kids, you've got expenses, I can understand why they like to have that buffer."
