In the late 1870s, a woman named Sarah Howe started a bank just for
single women called the Ladies’ Deposit Company. She asked new
customers to tell their friends about the bank rather than
advertising in newspapers, and she promised she could almost double
their money. Today, the story of the woman running a Ponzi
scheme before Charles Ponzi was even born. Say hello on Twitter,
