S9 Ep8: The economic consequences of living longer
Julian Ashwin, an economist studying ageing and longevity policy, and Martin Ellison, an Oxford macroeconomist on lifespan effects, discuss how longer lives reshape work, saving and care. They debate rethinking who is considered old, spreading resources over extended lifespans, lifelong learning and career flexibility, and the economic value of enabling older people to keep contributing.
