In this episode of Money Elementary, Heidi, Vanessa, and MIA spill the chisME on how the Federal Reserve is quietly running the economy like a behind-the-scenes boss. MIA breaks down how interest rates, bond expirations, and the Fed’s cookie-stashing ways are either feeding or starving the economy. From loan shortages to recession red flags, the trio unpacks what it really means when the Fed tightens—or decides to ease up. But don’t stress—MIA drops real-world tips like locking in fixed rates, crushing high-interest debt, and building that emergency stash like a pro. If the Fed’s mood swings are shaking up Wall Street, at least your money moves can stay steady.
