Episode description

Older Brits will be familiar with Bruce Forsythe’s Generation. Today everyone is playing the Generation Game, but the young are the one’s losing out. They are steeped in debt and faced with the prospect of progressively unaffordable housing. Many of the over 60s meanwhile, have accrued healthy amounts of assets. As Phil Dobbie discusses with Steve Keen much of this we4alth will be passed on, but not everyone will benefit. So intergenerational wealth is adding to the rich-poor gap.
