In this episode of Comedian vs Economist, Adam and Thomas delve into the complexities of government bonds, global economic implications, and the rising inflation in Japan. They discuss how these factors intertwine and affect interest rates, particularly in relation to mortgages. The conversation highlights the potential risks associated with Japanese monetary policy and its impact on global markets, while also addressing the nuances of consumer behavior regarding mortgage adjustments.
That's not all Adam and Thomas discuss in another big episode of CVE:
- The inefficiencies in the mortgage market, highlighting the outdated practices of banks and the need for automation
- An innovative company, Disco Corp, which operates without bosses, using a unique in-house currency system to motivate employees
- Whether animals have souls (we promise we'll tie it back to economics!)
