2018: Understanding the Rising Median Age in the US, It's Demographic Trends and Impact on the Economy

In this episode, Jason shares his experiences in Barcelona and discusses the declining birth rates and aging population in Europe and the United States. He highlights the impact of demographics on the economy and real estate market. The United States has reached a record-high median age of 38.9 years, while Spain has an even higher median age of 44.9 years. The article emphasizes the importance of replacement rate (2.1 children per woman) to maintain a stable population. However, the US is currently at 1.78 children per woman, indicating a shrinking population. Immigration may provide a solution, but it comes with its own challenges. The episode also touches on media fragmentation and the changing landscape of information consumption. Demographic shifts will continue to shape the future, with projections indicating an even older population in the coming decades. Announcing our Creating Wealth virtual event on July 20-21.
