摘要
Hetty Green was the richest woman you've never heard of.
In the late 1800s, she built a fortune worth billions today in a world designed to stop her. Women couldn't vote, couldn't own property, and weren't even allowed on the stock exchange floor.
She was a force that couldn't be stopped. She bought entire towns, crushed railroad barons, and became the lender of last resort during financial panics. Her strategies still work today.
This is the story of how an unwanted daughter became "The Witch of Wall Street," and a playbook for building lasting wealth and independence.
