#39 - Sam Stubbs - How To P*ss Off The Financial Establishment
Description
How have we ended up in both a housing and productivity crisis?
Why can't we seem to just get on with maintaining and building more housing and infrastructure?
Why does it feel like inequality is getting worse, not better?
Joining me on this episode of Revolving Door is Sam Stubbs, founder and CEO of simplicity, a not-for-profit kiwisaver and investment provider.
Late stage capitalism and an economy based on selling houses to each other is failing our younger generations. I ask Sam if it is possible to make capitalism work better for our young people. Us millenials and zoomers are struggling to get on the housing ladder. How easy is it to hold down a job when your landlord sells up your home? How easy is it for kids to get good education if they keep having to move schools? What effects will the stress of housing insecurity have on our health outcomes?
If we can't get housing right, can we really solve any of our other problems?
