What I am listening to this weekend:

• “Be sure to check out our Masters in Business interview this weekend with Danny Kahneman, behavioral and cognitive psychologist, author of “Thinking, Fast and Slow” and winner of the 2002 Nobel prize for economics” (Hat tip to Big Picture Blog)
• Radiolab Presents: Ponzi Supernova – interviews with Bernie Madoff who perpetuated the largest Ponzi scheme in history: sociopath or victim? You be the judge!
• Steve Kerr on the Axe File – whether you like the Golden State Warriors or not, you will enjoy this interview with an amazing coach (and person).
• Making Bank from Planet Money “Today on the show, we trace the evolution of banks from the Knights Templar to today. It’s the story of how a band of warrior monks working out of a very old church in London changed the way we think about money. There’s bloodshed, world domination, and lots of accounting.”

Enjoy the weekend!

Tim's saving habits started at seven when a neighbor with a broken hip gave him a dog walking job. Her recovery, which took almost a year, resulted in Tim getting to know the bank tellers quite well (and accumulating a savings account balance of over $300!). His recent entrepreneurial adventures have included driving a shredding truck, analyzing executive compensation packages for Fortune 500 companies and helping families make better college financing decisions. After volunteering in 2010 to create and teach a personal finance program at Eastside College Prep in East Palo Alto, Tim saw firsthand the impact of an engaging and activity-based curriculum, which inspired him to start a new non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance.
