About this listen

In this week’s episode of Money Elementary: ChisME, Heidi, Vanessa, and MEIA break down the Fed’s May 2025 decision to hold interest rates steady at 4.25–4.5%. They unpack why the Fed is keeping things calm — not to shock the system — and how this strategy aims to stabilize the economy without triggering another inflation spike. The trio also explains why high prices are likely here to stay, how the Fed is trying not to “rock the boat,” and what this all means for your wallet. With humor, drama, and a little side-eye at Jerome Powell, the crew helps listeners make sense of steady rates in an uncertain world.
