In this episode we also talk about investing in space with Alexander Gustafsson, Investment coach at Nordnet Bank and the host of Sparpodden (Savings podcast), who talks about space investments in Sweden.

"With the digital transformation, the world is dependent on space, it really is.

The extreme weather that is occurring because of the climate change can be measured and predicted by space, by satellites.. Even just being able to identify a stolen car can be identified by space. But, the space can also identify the forest fires, the tsunamis, the buildings that will fall, the bridges, the infrastructure. So today an investment in space is basically an investment in the essential part of our economy, of our society and of our life on the earth. It is truly that important."
