Money is one of the most important aspects of gender inequality. Yet it is an area that is yet to be tackled seriously. Although money does not buy us happiness, it gives us freedom.
Having enough money gives you choices about where you live, what you do for work and how you spend your free time. If you are married, it gives you choices about the kind of life or inheritance you will leave for your children.
So yes, freedom is empowerment as it facilitates choice. Women today are more educated and more exposed than their mothers or grandmothers.
