when John Ralston said it was an incredible burden to feel responsible for making sure that as much of this junk as possible doesn’t end up in the landfill, it really spoke to me. I renovate distressed properties and always have a hard time throwing out trash people have left behind. it’s nice to know I’m not the only one that feels some responsibility and Acts someone against my own Financial interests to reduce waste in the landfill

I want to know what company had such an incompetent HR department. Also--did V ever ask where his mother’s photo was and why coffee was spilled on his belongings?

Wow. I’ve always worked in non profit. In Jan of 2009 I had to lay off two people. I got one person an interview in another department and got the other person out of a new lease with no fees. Compassion is free folks.

Realtors bring very little value to consumers in the day of the Internet where people can buy a house directly.

Proportional representation is such a great idea. I wish we would do that.

Dear Planet Money, Your team has done great work, but none greater than the story of Earnest Jackson. Thank you for this thoughtful and telling final episode.

I would be careful wording it as white and Asian students taking the place of black and Hispanic students instead of saying what happened when priority was not given to particular groups. The black and Hispanic students should be given the same educational opportunities from early grades, feeding the root, instead of dealing with it when they are 18.

Consumers have no standing to actually negotiate a contract with big tech and big business. They can do whatever they want, no matter how unfair.

Airbnb is so evil. They need a competitor. They the people who rent from them and protect shady landlords. They suck.

Sorry. Love Planet Money. This was an awful idea for an episode. From the beginning, I was saying this was a non-issue. Then I told myself to keep an open mind about five minutes in. The episode ends with... this was not about money, but the principle of the issue. Fail.

Several Planet Money episodes cut off randomly 20 to 30 minutes into the episode. Anybody else experiencing this?

Before the 1980’s we had ”Savings and Loans” kinda equivalent to the Building and Loan. Both banks and S&L’s had saving accounts. But Banks could not do mortgages and S&L could not do checking accounts. If you wanted a mortgage you went to a S&L or a mortgage bank. Your regular bank was barred from making those types of loans. But the mortgage crisis of the early 80’s killed all the S&Ls.

Sounds like they need to use some dynamic pricing strategies, maybe depending on the ”itinerary” of the adult in charge 😅

This isnt quite true. You could make shopping carts with javascript that would move the information with you to other pages or you could store the basket in a iframe or other page.

The generation of politicians that have suffered from WWII and have sucked up the EU are over. English nationalism is the way forward.

This is so cool. Just to be clear we’ve had old cars that have been “totaled” more than once. I wish you had found my very old but still had an immortal transmission Volvo sedan. I had seen beautiful pictures of old cars in Cuba so was hoping that my old car could go somewhere exotic and have a second life helping people. I would for sure loved to have known! I enjoy Planet Money and have an insatiable thirst for the mysteries of global logistics and supply chains. Keep cool and carry on!
