Summary

This week Mrs. P did her research on one of the most important forgotten figures of the gilded age, Hetty Green. Listen as we tell a tale of a Quaker whaling heiress who grew a fortune so large that she bailed out the city of New York while dodging the tax man at a rate that wouldn't be seen until 2017.

This episode has it all, Whaling, stock tips, misogyny, raw onions, and penny pinching back when pennies meant something.
