About this listen

Short answer: No it does not. Long answer: It's more important than that. Its roots are in Roman soldiers' 'burial clubs' that pooled in money to help pay for their expensive funerals and cremations, and later on saved millions of lives during historic unrest. Today it uses a powerful technology to determine the probability of something as complex as death. Doesn't that seem like something straight out of a sci-fi movie? Because it is that cool.

This is Money Makes You Think, a podcast that explores the common questions that we have about the financial world, and is written for teenagers by a teenager (that's me!). I'm Aditi Anand, the author and voice behind the podcast. Frankly, I have a lot of questions about how finance works, which is why I want to explore the past, present and future implications things like cryptocurrency, life insurance and national debt in a fun, engaging way.
