Women Are Being Scammed: The Depreciating Asset Fashion Trap

Описание: We’ve been told for decades that women spend more on clothes because we’re "materialistic," but the Material Truth is much more calculated. In the world of finance, a depreciating asset is something that loses value the second you buy it. In this video, I’m breaking down the "Depreciating Asset Fashion Trap" and how the fashion industry relies on your ignorance of fabrics to keep you spending. From the "Pink Tax" at the dry cleaners to the plastic "seamless" tops that fall apart in four washes, we are exploring why it costs more to be a woman and how to take your financial power back.
