“As an economist, I'm looking at that number and trying to think about how it fits into a broader economic picture. But on the other hand, having grown up in a small town, not a very rich town, economically very stressed place I could think about the real families, real people that those numbers represented. That was important to me.” - Meet economist Ben Bernanke in our new podcast episode! Bernanke tells us about his childhood and how he took part in spelling competitions in school.

The man who caused the housing bubble. Yet he received a Nobel Prize.
