Money talks


Hello, 

I listened to a podcast Money talks from series GrownUpLand in BBC Radio 4. At the beginning children talked about their point of view for money and then Mae, Bisha and Ned talked about different aspect of money, for example, can we buy happiness or should we spend money, save it or try not to think about it?
When journalist told a subject of new conversation the first reaction of Ned was quite depressed because he had lost his job and he said it was difficult for him to change his material situation. Another speaker was Bisha. She works as a freelancer, and she has to control her spending. The last speaker was Mae who spent a lot of money, and she thinks with money we can’t buy happiness but it is possible to buy things which make us happy. During this conversation, Ned found out that when he was working as an accountant he spent more money for things that he didn’t need, for example for big lunches.
Often shopping is a kind of therapy. People feel better when they buy something new, even something small and cheap. It makes them happy.
The another aspect of this conversation was dedicated for future jobs. 65% kind of work of the future doesn’t exist now.  According to Bisha
 5 jobs will be very well-paid in the future: body part maker, nano-medic; vertical farmer; child designer and a haptic programmer.
Then they talk about different ways to save money, for example: we can go for a walk, hang out with a dog, play with our children. At the end, they tried to help people with their financial problems.
This week, money makes Mae feel sick, Bisha investigates the jobs of the future and Ned tries to stick to a budget.
