Here is a fairly infuriating quiz about how well you know women and money, put together by female personal finance guru Suze Orman. I scored 3 out of 10, underscoring my lack of knowledge of the fairer sex, despite several decades experience and tens of thousands in divorce settlements. See if you do any better.

3/10 :(
4/10...there is still quite some room for improvement.
I only got one out of ten. Only the AIG one...

Suze is my heroine!
4/10 Bunch o' crap!
4/10
4/10.... AIG question is a give away
4/10... I must say that I feel dumber having taken that test. It was basically just a series of 'gotchas.' What state has the biggest wage gap? I know all the statistics about persistent wage gaps etc, but why would I know that Wyoming has the biggest? I don't live in Wyoming, heck no one does, its had the smallest population in the union for like the past 3 years or some such.
4/10
I feel like so many of the questions were ill-defined. What percentage of household finances are managed by women? I didn't think that was clear - does it just refer to groceries etc? or rent/mortgage and elec bills?
I think the quiz was designed to make us feel like MCPs. If so, it definitely succeeded in its objective with me!
1/10. Suze Orman is one of the worst people on this planet.
4/10......but i still feel this quiz has no relation to me knowing women and money
simply put, bitches heart cash
otherwise that models and bottles video would never have caused so much ruckus
5/10, taken by a female analyst
5/10...and I second guessed myself on 3 of the questions I got wrong...I should have went with my first instinct.
Taken by a dude.

6/10.
3/10
agree with po boy
Well that worked out well for them lol
Superb attention to details!
6/10. Boo. I second guessed myself on a few, too.
(Female, obviously..)
1/10. Who else wants a picture of this girl?
1/10 What she should have asked is how many women invested over the last 30 years and made any money over 2% compounded?
6/10.
This test is crap.
Just choose the funky answer.
Late to the game but 3/10. Only because I've covered Pepsi in the past and AIG was a giveaway from just reading these posts. That leaves 8 questions I pretty much just guessed on, which makes me like a real idiot because based on these facts, I should have a 4/10.
Later to the game and 7 out of 10 but so what, this has nothing to do with women or finance. It is a current affairs and public policy wonk's superficial quiz.
3/10 (plus I knew AIG from reading the thread).
Glass Ceiling some times is perceived as an oasis..
Well, scored 3 on 10.. Poor..
Suggest a book: "Nice girls don't get the corner office" for wall street girls..
Mia
shes a feminist
What a biased quiz.
3/10
that quiz is meaningless as is suze orman.
3/10 lol
