a recently published report paints an alarming picture of the state of many americans' personal finances. the federal reserve says four in ten could not come up with $400 to cover an unexpected expense and two in ten cannot pay their monthly bills in full. its a trend that lindsey hopes to change. she's the author of a new book. money diaries. "money diaries, everything you ever wanted to know about your finances." the book is based on refinery 29's popular money diary series where women publicly track all of their expenses for one week for everyone to see and pick apart. money diary's is published by touchstone, an imprint of simon and schuster. a division of cbs. lindsey stanberry is the founding editor of the work and money section at refinery 29, a digital media company. good morning. love the book. i was laughing throughout.
8:16 am
i had no idea that finances could be so fun. you talk about how women tend to feel uncomfortable talking about money. i can relate to that. why do you think that is? >> i think its still really awkward and taboo subject. its only recently that we have entered the workforce in the numbers we have, we're only beginning to tell our financial stories and that's why money diaries has been so popular and that's why its so important to be talking about money. >> so many of these stories are very detailed. a lot of women have put it all out there, yourself included. why did you think it was important to talk about your financial issues? >> i thought it was really important because so many of the women that i interviewed in the book shared so much. there's a woman that has breast cancer and no health insurance. there was a lesbian couple talking about conception but didn't have the financial resources to do so. i'm also not a financial expert. i've been learning this along with our readers and so sharing my story, the things i struggle with, the areas i'm successful
8:17 am
in, i think gives an easier entryway into talking about money. >> one of the biggest misconceptions about money is and you note this as well, is that people find it intimidating. they think it's so hard. you argue the opposite, that its not actually that hard. >> i don't think its hard. i think that there are areas that are difficult, there are areas that are awkward. there are spaces where you'll have to take some time and do research, but i say in the beginning of the book, i was bad at math in high school. i was very creative. i didn't ever think that i would be writing about personal finance for a living. its ki of and understand your money and its a game changer. >> that's a you point out, people sometimes have debt and they're ashamed of it and don't want to look at it in the face. interesting it's women who hold most of the outstanding loan debt in this country,
8:18 am
$900 billion worth and $29,000 worth is the average debt. how do you wrap your arms around that? >> its hard. its not surprising either. we have a gender wage gap. so we get paid less than men and there's a lot of guilt and shame around loan debt. we're getting those loans so we can better ourselves. if we think of them more as mortgages, we can start to pay them off. it doesn't have to be a sprint, it can be a marathon. but there are other bigger systemic problems holding us back. with that in mind, you know, sometimes these are not problems you can fix on a personal level. its a political issue. one of the things i found so alarming was that you said that 75% of those who ask for a raise actually get one, but half of americans don't even ask. >> i know, right? isn't that amazing? i think its scary to ask for a raise. i have been terrible at negotiating for myself. its only something i've gotten better at in recent years. they really say you need to be negotiating from that very first

job offer and you might not necessarily get a yes, but at least you set a precedent so that they're going to start knowing that you are someone who expects more. >> and you're making it that much more difficult for them to say no. >> yeah. >> something my father always said was to have money for a rainy day and you say that is the most important advice that you could offer, is to have an emergency fund. how many americans don't? >> most americans don't. we did a survey recently at refinery 29 where we found that one in four women didn't have more than $250 in savings and that's shocking and its worrisome. we recommend in the book -- i worked with a team of all women financial advisers, that was really important to me. and one of the women recommended that you have at least $2,000 in savings and if you think about that, that breaks down to about $5 a day. i joke in the book. i tell you not to buy a latte. that's terrible advice. i think that -- i'm not going to
8:20 am
tell you not to buy that latte, if you think of that $5 going to an emergency fund that you can use for something really important, it's so crucial. >> you say budgets are bull. >> yeah. i don't love budgets. i think that -- a lot of the advice around women and money tends to have a indicting diatribe to it. and that's not helpful. they really set us up to fail. if you set up a budget and go over, you feel anxiety. it also is a really great mindful exercise. i actually recommend people to do a money diary. i swipe my credit card at the grocery store without looking at the total. i think a lot of people do. making the -- taking the time to write it down can really change things. >> i think you said that budgets are bull, followed by another four-letter word that we don't

due. he wants to help others who are also facing huge medical bills. that would have given me a heart attack. some of the brightest minds in the world are fans of books of our next guests, myself included. he explored the past and future of humanity in his book "sapiens" and homo deus." they became bestsellers. they were also praised by thought leaders including barack obama, bill gates, mark zuckerberg, and sir richard branson. in his new book, "21 lessons for the 21 std century he focuses the ent a pressing issues facing humanity. you all know harare. congratulations on the book. so much is focused technology and a.i. and the big question is will a.i. help us as a race,
8:35 am
will it help us as a society, or will a.i. help in our downfall. >> that depend as what you do with it. you u can build the very same societies with the same technologies just as you can use trains, electricity, and radio to fill come is in tick dictatorships or fascists. in the 21st century you can use a.i. tech joy to build a paradise or hell. it's up to us. >> what about jobs though? one of the stories leading up to this interview was about the need to retrain workers and the feared loss of jobs due to automation. what can we expect in decades to come when it comes to jobs? >> well, we can expect two things. the job market will completely change. much of the struggles that people will have will be against irrelevance and not exploitation. >> yeah. you said there's a real risk we
8:36 am
could maintain a classless useless class of people. >> that's the biggest thing. people will loose their economic value and also the political power. now there will be, of course, new jobs. some jobs will disappear. many jobs will disappear. many jobs will emerge. the big question is whether people will be able to retrain and reinvent themselves in time and whether they can do it again and again and again because if you have a 50-, 60-year career as life expectancy increases, you'll have to do it not only once. some people think the a.i. revolution will be some big event following which the job market will set into an equilibrium. this is very unlikely. it will likely be an escape for ever bigger disruption. you'll have to reinvent yourself repeatedly.
8:37 am
here the biggest question may be psychological. whether people have the mental ability to reinvent themselves at age 40 and again at 50 and again at 0. >> -- 60. >> you say we're not preparing kids for this in school. >> no, not at all. most of what kids learn in school will probably be irrelevant by the time they're 40 or 50, and we don't really know what to teach them because nobody knows how the job market or the world will look like in 2050. it may be the first time in history we have no idea whatsoever how the job market would look like in 30 years. so the best bet is to focus on emotional intelligence and mental stability and mental resilience. >> how do you suggest that people do that? >> i don't know. >> you meditate. you meditate every day. that's one of the dhe things yo.
8:38 am
>> i meditate two hours a day and go on retreats. >> two hours a day. >> because of it, i know how difficult it is. and it's not easily scaleable, and it's much more difficult to teach emotional intelligence or mental resilience than to teach physics equations or to teach history or whatever. we don't have the tools in the present to scale up this kind of teaching. so most of what we see in most schools is just inertia. we do what's relatively century >> your point is we're still kind of stuffing kids full of information that they now can get pretty easily themselves. what we need to do is teach them how to evaluate that information. >> that's part of the thing. it's not what i say. it's what almost all experts on education would agree. information is the last thing the kid needs. they have far too much of it anyway.
8:39 am
and censorship today works in a very different way. in the past, censorship worked by blocking the flow of information, and information was very valuable. today censorship works by flooding people with ee another muss amounts nof not just dysinformation. >> conflicting information. >> conflicting information and relevant inform snoogs one of the questions you raise is who's going to own that information and owning that data in the future as well. >> yeah. that's maybe the biggest political question. i mean in ancient times, length was the most important asset in the economy, so politics was a struggle to control land. in the last 200 years machine replaced land as the most important economic asset. so politics became the sglch and now data is replacing machines as the most important asset. so politics is really a struggle about who owns and who controls
