Household saving & labour supply are shaped by various risks throughout the lifespan. M Borella, @mdenardi.bsky.social @fang-yang-econ.bsky.social & @johanatch.bsky.social analyse how these risks interact to better design policy that protects households from shocks.

#EconSky
Household saving and labour supply are shaped by many risks – wages, marriage, health, longevity – as well as bequest motives. This column develops a model that tracks individuals from age 26 through to retirement and death to show how these risks interact to drive economic behaviour. The findings highlight that incorporating risk, and how it differs by gender, marital status, and age, helps design policies that protect households from shocks without distorting work and saving incentives.

A national cryptocurrency reserve is a scam. It is simply an attempt by those who own cryptocurrency to trade it for US dollars or gold from the Treasury. The federal government will be left holding this bag of hazardous waste.

What Europe should do RIGHT NOW: Make it extremely easy for US scientists to get long-term visa, create as many additional research jobs in key areas as possible, create new, generous science and research funds. People are losing their jobs over there NOW. Let‘s welcome them.

As a result, bequest motives are a key determinant of aggregate retirement wealth.

We show that saving motives vary by marital status, permanent income, and age. We find that most households save more for medical expenses than for bequests but that richer households and couples, who hold most of the wealth, save more for bequests.

We estimate a model of savings for retired couples and singles who face longevity and medical expense risks and in which couples can leave bequests both when the first spouse dies and when the last spouse dies.
