You Are Unhappy Because You Aren't Taking Enough Risk
About this episode
Have we become too risk-averse? This week John Stepek and Bloomberg Opinion columnist Allison Schrager discuss her new book, Worth the Risk, and why avoiding risk could be holding back both individuals and economies. They explore the challenges of retirement planning, whether homeownership is still a rewarding investment and what history can teach us about navigating the future of AI.
