Bio
Miles Kimball holds the Eaton Chair in Economics at the University of Colorado Boulder, and is Emeritus Professor of Economics and Survey Research of the University of Michigan. (Born in 1960, he is now 63.) He is an Affiliate of the Behavioral and Health Genomics Center at the University of Southern California. Miles is also a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach.
Politically, Miles is an independent who grew up in an apolitical family. He holds many strong opinions—open to revision in response to cogent arguments—that do not line up neatly with either the Republican or Democratic Party.
Alexander Trentin's introduction to me in the German language version of his March 2017 interview with me: "Governments should need approval to buy foreign assets." Translated with the help of Google Translate and my college German it reads:
