Daniel Thompson, B.Ec & Com, M. App Fin: Retirement Planning | Self-improvement Atlas #17

People say it’s too early to start retirement planning before 50, so when is exactly the right time to start retirement planning? Can we start doing it at least when we are 25 years old? What types of financial products should we consider when it comes to retirement planning?

Dr. Jonathan Schooler: Aging Brain and Memory Loss | Self-improvement Atlas #12

Aging has been described as the primary risk factor for neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s diseases, Parkinson’s diseases, and dementia. How does aging affect our personal life and development? What should we do to prevent aging brain and memory loss moving forward?
In this episode of Self-improvement Atlas: The Personal Science Insights Podcast host, Aditi Kutty, sits down with Dr. Jonathan Schooler, a Distinguished Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of California Santa Barbara.
His research on human cognition explores topics that intersect philosophy and psychology, such as how fluctuations in people’s awareness of their experience mediate mind-wandering and how exposing individuals to philosophical positions alters their behavior.  He is also interested in the science of science (meta-science) including understanding why effect sizes often decline over time, and how greater transparency in scientific reporting might address this issue. 
Aditi and Dr. Schooler discuss the definition of aging brain, how it relates to memory loss and impact on our personal life, and different kinds of memory. Dr. Schooler also shares his favorite book, The Book on the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are, from Alan Watts.
