taste:
1. She became the first woman to report from the floor of the Stock Exchange because then-NYSE chairman Dick Grasso wanted to demystify business.

3. Role models? Her mom and Jack Welch, of course.
4. Joey Ramone wrote a song about her called, naturally, “Maria Bartiromo.”
5. “After five years at CNN, I had a knock-out Rolodex, which is really my claim to fame.” The throngs of ogling day traders may differ on that one, however.
If you’re unfamiliar with Bee, it says it is a magazine dedicated to women interested in politics, lifestyle and finance.
