Marketplace Weekend for Friday, December 12, 2014
This weekend, we focus on creation, in the job market, our money, and our lives. Three people tell their stories of working in growing industries: retail, manufacturing, and healthcare. Lizzie O'Leary talks with Sarah Watt House about signs of wage growth in the November jobs report. Marketplace Senior Editor and host of Marketplace Whiteboard Paddy Hirsch talks about another side of job creation how to count the number of unemployed people in the U.S. Lizzie and Marketplace Tech host Ben Johnson head to the kitchen to discuss how professional cooking products trickle down to the consumer market. Gavin McIntyre, co-founder of Ecovative, describes how his company makes packaging, furniture, and surfboards...out of mushrooms. And how do you budget for the holiday season?
