Podcast: Dispelling the Myth of an Ageing Population with Cameron Murray

by Nucleus Wealth Team

October 14, 2026

In this week’s podcast, Nucleus Wealth’s Chief Investment Officer, Damien Klassen, is joined by Cameron Murray of Fresh Economic Thinking to challenge one of the biggest assumptions about Australia’s ageing population — that more retirees inevitably mean fewer workers supporting more dependants. We unpack why traditional age-based dependency ratios no longer reflect how people live and work today, and what the data reveals about later retirement, changing workforce participation, and the real economic implications of an ageing population.
