In this week’s episode of the Plutonomix Podcast, Barnaby Levin and Laurie Kamhi discuss the growing wealth divide and the consequences it will have on the economic and investment landscape - including something now referred to as "Money Dysmorphia." They explore the impact the pending, $72 Trillion transfer of wealth from Boomers to younger generations might have in the midst of this and the risks associated with being the beneficiary of sudden wealth. Barnaby and Laurie also touch on the potential benefit dividends can have in stock-picking strategies and the need for alternative investments when faced with market volatility. And they remind listeners of the importance of patience and preparation when navigating times of economic and political uncertainty.
