Abstract: In this dissertation, I examine how differences among individuals in various dimensions of human capital, such as health or education, evolve throughout all stages of the life cycle and endure across generations. I explore how these differences are influenced by policies and how they interact with economic inequalities, such as those in income or wealth. To investigate these questions, I employ quantitative methods used in modern macroeconomic research, linking models of individual decision-making and well-being with micro–, and macroeconomic data. The dissertation consists of three self-contained chapters.
