A goal without a plan is just a wish. This is especially true with the financial decisions that shape our daily lives and build our futures. Many of us spend a lot of time thinking about what we want and worrying about if and when we will achieve it, but when it comes to the specific details and the challenges (both technical and emotional) of putting a plan in place, our efforts often fall far short of our intentions.

There is an equilibrium between inflation and interest rates and the impact on the economy. Increasing the money supply makes each individual dollar worth less. This can stimulate the economy but at the cost of higher inflation. The Federal Reserve System handles the monetary policy that influences how money functions in the financial system and controls the target borrowing rate, “Fed rate,” which dictates interest rates in the economy.
