With every passing day, it feels like we’re finding it more and more difficult as a society to discuss real, complex issues with the depth and nuance they demand. Not just to understand the challenges we face but also to understand each other.

Money should, in theory, be a relatively easy thing to understand. We interact with it every day after all. Unfortunately, it’s not quite as simple as just ‘the money in your account’. That being said, just because something isn’t straightforward doesn’t mean we should seek to make it harder than it needs to be.

It feels as though as more time passes, we’re drifting further into an age where true independent thinking is quietly fading away. It’s not that we’ve lost intelligence or the capacity to think, at least, not yet.
