-- what is it correlated with? health? happiness?
-- is more GDP better for rich countries? - mention alternative measures to GDP

the lecture is (policy matters)

Research direction
Open the long_run_growth lecture and review its opening motivation and discussion of GDP. Compare the lecture against each requested topic, including real income, GDP’s relationship to well-being, richer-country comparisons, and alternatives to GDP. Done means the lecture clearly explains why policy and the lecture’s subject matter matter from the start.
