These days, the wealth management industry is all about women—both women investors and advisors. And yet women advisors still don't make as much as men.

In fact, women only make 61.3 percent of what men make. Their median weekly earnings are $941, compared to $1,535 for men. Here's how the field stacks up to other professions.
