Relative Return Insider: Was life really better in the good old days?

In this episode of Relative Return Insider, host Olivia Grace-Curran sits down with AMP chief economist Shane Oliver to unpack whether the "good old days" really were better - and what today's economic pressures mean for Australians. Shane explores AMP's recent research comparing life in the mid-1970s, around the year 2000, and today.
