“I value a broad classic liberal education. They should not take business courses in college; they should take as much history, political science, philosophy, religion as they can fit in.”
On , Paul Singer, Founder & CEO at Elliott Management, spoke about education during Paul Singer | Podcast | In Good Company | Norges Bank Investment Management on NorgesBankInvestmentManagement.
Paul Singer, CEO of Soldier On since 2025, appeared on the podcast "Towards Understanding" around Anzac Day 2026 to discuss the organization's work supporting Australian veterans and their families. Singer, a veteran himself, described the challenge of maintaining public attention for veterans' needs long after media coverage of conflicts fades, comparing it to how disaster-affected communities are often forgotten after initial news cycles. He stated that Soldier On helps both serving members planning their transition and those who seek support after leaving, and noted that the organization can serve as an independent voice to help serving members weigh the benefits of staying in the military against leaving. Singer encouraged listeners to acknowledge veterans' service and ask them about it, saying such conversations foster "understanding and awareness and connection."
