How to Beat the “Singles Tax” and Still Build Wealth

Victoria here, Girlboss’ executive editor. 👋

All the single ladies, now put your hands up! ☝️ Being single is expensive (fellow single lady here!). When you’re not splitting rent, groceries, utilities, vacations, Ubers, furniture, Costco runs, and every other random life admin cost with a partner, it can feel like you’re paying a premium just to exist on your own. Fun!

And while being single is not a problem to be solved (read that again!), the financial reality of being a solo earner can weigh heavily on your bank account. Today’s newsletter is all about how to beat the “singles tax” and start building wealth as a solo earner. 🤑

💼 Job of the day: Pikachu, I choose you! The Pokémon Company International is hiring a Manager, Brand Services (Fashion & Home) to help bring the beloved brand to life across licensed apparel and home goods. The salary range—$119K–$214K—is a pretty nice perk, too.
