Episode 63
Ever wondered why the rich don't just solve world hunger or make the change all of us are so desperate to see? We get into this and more in this week's episode of Money Feels.
We're your hosts, Alyssa and Bridget. Welcome to the podcast, where we talk through our money trauma and create a better understanding of building a healthy relationship with finance.
In today's episode, we discuss the following:
- The Elite Charade of Changing the World by Anand Giridharadas
- How the rich and powerful fight for equality and justice in ways that don’t threaten their position
- Analysis of how elites rebrand themselves as benevolent saviours while maintaining the status quo
- Examination of how elites lavishly reward "thought leaders" who redefine "change" in ways that are friendly to winners.
- Thoughts about the wealthy populations' philanthropic efforts
- Steps that everyday citizens can take to incite meaningful change
- Removing the individualistic narratives that pit us against each other
