Diamonds may have been a girl's best friend in an era when a woman's only hope of having a high family income was to marry a man who was well-off, but today, marketable skills that will enable a woman to command a good income over her lifetime are a better investment.

Work is not peripheral to women's sense of Mastery, it is central. Women do not fully develop their capacities if they function primarily in the sphere of feelings and emotion; the idea that a man is what he does and a woman is what she feels is archaic. If work per se is important to a woman's well-being, so too is the quality of her work life.
