Grateful to AARP for its support and to the Urban Institute for featuring my work on intergenerational wealth transfers. The blog below explores what this upward support means for adult children’s own financial futures. The brief provides the longer-term trend data: www.urban.org/research/pub...

This brief analyzes who inherits what, how adults without children transfer wealth, and when money flows upward, from younger to older generations.

I’m excited to share that @ksavin.bsky.social, @calliefreitag.bsky.social, and I have a new piece out summarizing our research on how the Trump admin’s attack on the public sector have made it harder to get and maintain disability benefits—which were already quite difficult to navigate.

theconversation.com

Getting disability benefits got harder after the Social Security Administration’s staff was slashed and program rules were changed by Trump

Researchers learned from dozens of interviews that the usual ways of resolving complex cases, escalating issues and holding the authorities accountable no longer work.
