Abstract

This chapter explores and answers the question of why women earn less money than men. We shall explore social data, family upbringing messages and attitudes towards money, women’s priorities and work life situations. Though this is a feature of many countries, the empirical data which we shall use to address this question are drawn from studies performed in Spain.
