Welcome to the Frug Life, a podcast on Frugal living and business. There are a lot of business podcasts and a lot of frugal living podcasts, why does the world need another one? Well, I am tired of the same interview format podcast many of these programs take. So instead, I created a structured podcast where I can share my thoughts about Frugal living, the economy, and business. Also follow us at https://www.facebook.com/TheFrugLife027922 Economics

  • Federal Reserve’s Interest Rates and You, Featuring Frank Clement
    May 5 2026

    Ever hear headlines about the Federal Reserve and tune them out? Those abstract percentages dictate the flow of your daily financial life. In this featured segment, Frank Clement, VP of Strategic Partnerships at America's Christian Credit Union, takes over the mic to break down what the Fed actually does—and why it matters for your wallet.

    Frank demystifies how the federal funds rate creates a ripple effect across the entire economy, shifting everything from your savings account yield to the cost of canned tuna.

    What you'll learn in this 10-minute segment:

    • For Borrowers: How a shifting rate cycle can quietly add $700+ to a standard monthly mortgage payment.

    • For Savers: Why high interest rates are the ultimate opportunity to lock in solid CD yields and build a cash cushion.

    • For Ministries: How changing rate environments impact stewardship and the viability of church building projects.
