• Episode 053: Moshe Milevsky

  How can we make our money last as long as we do?In this episode of Podcast or Perish, I talk with Prof. Moshe Milevsky of the Schulich School of Business, York University, a leading expert on pensions and financial planning. We discuss “longevity risk,” which is all about what happens if you outlive your retirement savings. We look at the origins of pensions in the Church of Scotland, the psychology of retirement, and how Moshe’s research bridges economics and human behavior to design safer financial futures.***Full transcript, photos, and related resources:https://www.podcastorperish.ca/episodes/episode-053-moshe-milevsky***Podcast or Perish is about academic research and why it matters.

• 053: Moshe Milevsky

  Finance professor Moshe Milevsky studies personal finance and retirement planning, focusing on a simple question that matters to each of us: How can you make sure your money lasts as long as you do? The answer that the world of finance gives us is to share that risk with as many people as possible. Moshe doesn't agree with the assumptions behind this answer. In this interview, he talks about what we can learn from the world's first pension plan, which began in Scotland in the 1744 and lasted until 1995. Risk sharing is not about large numbers of people, he says. It's about solidarity with others in your community. Hosted and produced by Cameron Graham, Professor of Accounting at York University.

• 052: Eileen Fischer

  Prof. Eileen Fischer, the eminent marketing researcher at the Schulich School of Business, talks about her research into the roles that emotional work plays in creating and sustaining alternative markets. These are those local markets that offer an alternative to mass market consumer capitalism. They bring together local producers and local consumers in an effort to build community and help save the planet. If you've ever wanted to "shop local," you'll be surprised to learn how much emotional effort it takes to keep things running.
