Description:

162 million people in the US and in Europe engage in independent work as a primary or supplemental source of income, and this number is growing quickly as people are taking advantage of tech-driven opportunities. But the opportunities are changing just as quickly, and while there is a desired flexibility to this type of work, there is also a lack of security or benefits. Chip and Caroline speak with Stacy Brown-Philpot, the CEO of TaskRabbit, to discuss what, if anything, society and education are doing to keep up with this growing and changing gig economy.
