"Breaking the Glass Ceiling: How Indian-American Women Outearn White Men"

When it comes to the gender pay gap, the conversation often centers around the fact that women earn 79 cents on the dollar compared to men. But a closer look at the data reveals that the picture is more complex than that. In fact, Indian-American women and Chinese-American women earn more on average than non-Hispanic white men.

So, what accounts for this surprising finding? The answer lies in education. A staggering 72 percent of Indian-Americans have four-year college degrees, and an impressive 40 percent have some professional or graduate degree. And it's not just Indian-Americans who are highly educated - more than half of Asian-Americans over 25 have a bachelor's degree or higher, compared to only 33 percent of non-Hispanic whites.
