- Investing
We know that debt can be emotional. That sometimes it’s neutral. That debt is often necessary. And that debt has a long, long history. But what’s the future of debt? Will credit cards disappear from our lives? Will our concept of work itself change? In the context of a costly climate future, what are we going to have to let go of as a society? How do we need to adapt?
Hear from futurist and author Brett King and financial journalist Alan Kohler.
Life and Debt is a four-part series, hosted by The Ethics Centre’s Cris Parker. Hear from financial advisors, journalists, finfluencers, psychologists and historians about the psychology, the history, the marketing and the future of debt. Created by The Young Ambassadors in The Ethics Centre’s Banking and Finance Oath initiative.
