Submit ReviewWe have record unemployment and millions of Canadians are relying on CERB payments to make ends meet, and yet our savings rate is increasing. How is that possible? On today's podcast, our guest is author and financial analyst, Hilliard MacBeth, who provides insight on how the savings rate is calculated, and whether increased savings mean Canadians are curbing their appetite for debt. We also discuss what to expect with the real estate market and deflation, and we talk about Modern Monetary Theory and whether we should really worry about national deficits. There's lots to learn from this episode, so tune in!
