A woman has to decide whether she's going to partner up with a man and be the best housewife she can be so she will get provided for OR accept she will be working long hours and grinding corporate for the rest of her life. Failure to be good at either is what results in poverty.
Now of course some insecure woman with trust issues is going to come along and say "what if I'm a good wife and he leaves me anyway"
You're missing the point. Corporate can fire you and make life hard too. The point is you have to pick a path, specialise in it and be good at it.

If you don't have the intellect, energy levels and stress tolerance (low enough neuroticism) to be competent in leadership capacities, you're temperamentally not cut out for full-time, high order complexity work. This is most women. If that's you, fine, nothing to be ashamed of.
In that case you're better suited to being in the home and finding a man who's all the things you're not (predominantly: high energy and high stress tolerance) - because these are the traits that make a good provider, and you lack those traits, so won't provide well for yourself.
The problem is when you're temperamentally not suited to high corporate level achievement, BUT ALSO are not temperamentally well suited to being a good wife and serving your husband.
This is how you end up old, alone, and poor with no insurance plan.
I am not being dramatic.

A woman who lacks the traits to have a successful career but also lacks the traits to be a good wife has nothing of value to anyone. She will either fail to marry or end up divorced, and she will struggle to survive on whatever low wage she is capable of earning.
So, in a nutshell, if you're a high IQ, high energy, not too neurotic woman, and you don't really trust men or for whatever reason have grand ambitions, a career is an option for you and can pan out (no poverty) but for the vast majority of women, marriage is the superior option.
"Why can't I do both?"
You can, but you'll excel at neither as family gets in the way of work and work gets in the way of family.
And the best men won't opt for a woman who's always stressed from work and too tired to cook and clean when he can just have a fully dedicated wife.
