Money, Family, and Meaningful Work with Jodi Kantor and Ron Lieber

50 Fires: Money and Meaning with Carl Richards

Jodi Kantor and Ron Lieber are both distinguished journalists at The New York Times, and today they join Carl to discuss the importance of financial stability for their family while pursuing work that is meaningful, both as individuals, and as a couple. Ron has been the “Your Money” columnist for The New York Times since 2008, and worked as the editor for Carl’s “Sketch Guy” column when he was at the Times. In 2017, Jodi and her colleague Megan Twohey I broke the story of decades of sexual abuse allegations against the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, work that helped ignite the #MeToo movement and spur cultural, corporate and legal changes around the globe. In this episode of 50 Fires, Ron and Jodi discuss their personal experiences with money and how it has shaped their lives. They discuss the role of money in their family and the lessons they ultimately hope to pass on to their children.
