Money Elementary - The Heart of the Economy: How Money Moves from the Fed to Your Wallet
In this week’s Money Elementary: ChisME, Heidi, Vanessa, and MEIA break down how money flows through our economy—starting with the Federal Reserve, through the banks, and finally to us. We simplify the mystery behind how money is added or taken out of circulation, what signals the Fed looks for, and how it all affects inflation, interest rates, and your wallet. Think of the Fed as the heart, banks as arteries, and spending as the lifeblood of the economy. It’s drama, dollars, and just the right dose of financial tea.
