I giovani non parlano di pensione, e se lo fanno spesso scherzano, la vedono come un traguardo lontano e spesso irraggiungibile. Eppure proprio per le generazioni che hanno davanti ancora qualche decennio di lavoro occuparsi di previdenza dovrebbe essere una priorità. In questa puntata viene a trovarci in studio Anna Vinci, co-founder e volto di Ciao Elsa, una start up che aiuta a pianificare il proprio futuro previdenziale, finanziario ed assicurativo, affrontando in modo immediato e accattivante temi quali la gestione del TFR e i fondi pensione. Nella prima parte della trasmissione dedichiamo un aggiornamento al bonus psicologo, la misura che permette - in presenza di determinati requisiti - di accedere ad un aiuto fino a 1500 euro da spendere in sedute con un professionista. Il percorso degli stanziamenti, relativamente agli anni passati, è stato un po' tortuoso. Per quanto riguarda la cifra prevista per il 2025 manca ancora la pubblicazione in Gazzetta Ufficiale, ma la Conferenza Stato-Regioni ha approvato lo scorso maggio il testo di un decreto dei ministeri di Salute ed Economia. Ci aiuta a fare il punto della situazione Bianca Lucia Mazzei de Il Sole 24 ORE.

According to the Sample Registration System report for 2021 released by the Registrar General of India on May 7, the Total Fertility Rate (TFR), which is the average number of children that a woman is expected to have in her childbearing years, in India was 2.0 in 2021, the same as in 2020. While Delhi and West Bengal reported the lowest TFR of 1.4, Bihar reported the highest at 3.0. Is Bihar's high replacement rate a consequence of poverty? We discuss the question here.

Max Trescott shares his top recommended settings for Garmin avionics systems, specifically the G1000, G1000 NXi, G3000, G5000, and the Cirrus Perspective and Perspective+ systems. These configuration tips enhance situational awareness, flight safety, and pilot efficiency—and many also apply to Garmin standalone navigators like the GTN 650 and 750. The episode begins with a critical safety upgrade: switching the Traffic Page vectors from Absolute to Relative. Unlike absolute vectors (which only show heading), relative vectors display a target aircraft's flight path in relation to your own—allowing you to detect potential collision courses earlier and take evasive action sooner. Max also explains Pilot Profiles, which store individual settings for different pilots or flight types. These profiles auto-save any inflight changes, even if made by other users, which can unintentionally overwrite your setup. He offers a clever workaround: naming your profile something like “Maintenance Only” to discourage accidental use. For Cirrus Perspective, Perspective+, and other G1000-based systems, Max outlines his strong preference for Track Up or Heading Up map orientations and why North Up is ergonomically flawed. North Up can disorient pilots in high-workload situations and may even contribute to midair conflicts, as it forces mental rotation of traffic and terrain. Airline pilots overwhelmingly avoid it—and you should too. Other key settings include: Auto Zoom: Turn off to avoid erratic map scaling. Track Vector: Set to 60 seconds to better judge turns and approach timing. Wind Vector: Display wind components (headwind/tailwind and crosswind) clearly for better landing decisions. Fuel Range Rings: Display fuel reserves and total endurance graphically to enhance fuel planning. Altitude Arc ("Banana Bar"): Visually predict level-off points—critical for IFR approaches. Obstacle & Terrain Awareness: Enable obstacle data and use Relative Terrain (especially at night) to avoid controlled flight into terrain (CFIT). For Cirrus Perspective pilots, Max also emphasizes enabling Runway Extensions to help identify the extended centerline in complex or night conditions, and TFR overlays to stay compliant with airspace restrictions. Soft key setup tips include: Enabling Traffic every flight. Using the Inset Map (Vertical Situation Display) to monitor terrain clearance, especially during nighttime descents or cruise-level wind shifts. Declutter Levels: Adjust map detail to balance visibility and clarity; Max prefers the “Detail –3” setting to retain Class B/C airspace while reducing screen clutter. Disabling Pathways and flashing cursors, which can cause visual overload. Through these curated settings, Max demonstrates how pilots flying with Garmin or Cirrus Perspective avionics can custom-tailor their displays for clarity, efficiency, and most importantly—safety.

Molti si domandano se è più conveniente destinare il TFR a un fondo pensione oppure lasciarlo in azienda. La risposa non può essere uguale per tutti e dipende da esigenze e preferenze individuali.

Det inre partiet tar idag tag i fertiliteten, igen. Vi läser Walden i DN och inser att denna fråga kommer bli den stora frågan framöver, just för att ingen vet varför vi har så låg TFR. Är det religionsbrist eller klimatkris, feminism eller P-FAS, Netflix eller städerna? Det går att motbevisa dem alla, men samtidigt kan frågan projiceras med vilket politiskt innehåll som helst. Vi avslutar med att ge policyrekommendationer till våra egna politiker hur man kan slå politiskt mynt av frågan.

This week on The First Run, it's retro-week as Matt is out of town and Chris is otherwise occupied. In this classic episode from 2010, Chris, Matt, and Espo(?!?) get all spookified with their discussions about Lars Van Trier's 'Antichrist', as well as the Swedish vampire import, 'Let The Right One In'.

Mollare tutto e mettersi in proprio. Alzi la mano chi negli ultimi anni non ci ha pensato almeno una volta. Unioncamere registra che nel 2024 sono nate quasi 323 mila nuove imprese, segno di un forte desiderio di autonomia professionale. Tuttavia, si tratta di una transizione che porta con sé una serie di sfide: c'è la fattibilità dell'idea da valutare, la sostenibilità economica e finanziaria da calcolare, le spese iniziali e le tasse da mettere in conto. E servono tenacia e ambizione per dare vita a un'impresa che richiede molti sforzi, senza offrire la sicurezza di un'entrata stabile.Non solo: oltre ai costi di gestione di una nuova attività, è fondamentale valutare anche ciò a cui si rinuncia lasciando il posto fisso. Ferie pagate, tredicesima, trattamento di fine rapporto (TFR) e copertura per malattia sono tutti benefici che garantiscono una certa stabilità economica e che, nel lavoro autonomo, devono essere compensati con una pianificazione attenta. Francesca, arrivata all'età di 42 anni, ha deciso di lasciar uscire il sogno dal suo cassetto. E adesso si trova davanti a una serie di domande a cui dare risposta. E ad aiutarla, in questa puntata, c'è Rosa Cataldo, consulente di Alleanza Assicurazioni.

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt discuss a pair of thrillers to open 2025. First up, it's the return of the king, with Steven Soderbergh's haunted house thriller, ‘Presence'.

  On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib has a wide-ranging conversation with Dan Hess, the man behind the More Births account on social media. An engineer with a large family in the DC area, Hess' essays on topics like Israelis' high birth rate have gained the attention of X, with an account that has come from a few hundred followers to more than 30,000 in 2 years. Razib and Hess first review the birth-rate collapse seen worldwide in the past two decades. They discuss the relatively abrupt cultural pivot that has occurred since the turn of the century, with the end of the “overpopulation” narrative typified by Paul Erhlich's Population Bomb, the rise of the “birth dearth” and the natalist movement. They talk about the most extreme cases of low total fertility rates (TFR) in Europe and East Asia, but also the decline in societies like the US, Latin America and the Middle East. Hess addresses both possible causes and possible solutions. They also discuss historical and demographic factors that impact fertility; for example, which religions have been the most pro-natalist? Hess also puts a particular focus on South Korea, the world's most extreme case of a sharp decrease, with a TFR of about 0.70 children per woman (vs. 2.1 replacement), as well as exceptions to the rule like Haredi Jews and the Amish. Finally, Razib and Hess tackle why we should care about slower population growth in this century, from dependency ratios to the impact on cultural vitality.
