DB 🌱💦@danwentzel The Icelandic banks that did not fail in the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis were run by women because they chose not to invest in something no one could properly explain. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/a-nordic-revolution-the-heroines-of-reykjavik-7658212.html?amp
Tom Barkas@dbattistella @danwentzel @greenaspen That’s because the Vikings took a lot of women from Scotland to found Iceland and Scots are canny with money - must be mitochondrial DNA in the mother-line
MikeSaul@dbattistella @danwentzel tell me more please-I’d like to read more about banks that were run by women and didn’t fail and the difference in approach but can’t find it in this article. Are you referencing another article? I tried and couldn’t find.
TiltSoft@dbattistella @danwentzel it's because women use that jelly matter between their ears: the brain. While men are driven by testosterone without any kind of thinking.
Baron Vonskinnback@dbattistella @danwentzel unfortunately the UK has not done well under female leadership, though in all fairness we haven't done well under most male leadership's either...😂
