Weekly Market Insights April 28 - May 2, 2025

Welcome to The Personal Wealth Coach, where father-son duo Jeff and Jake bring wit, wisdom, and a healthy dose of curiosity to the biggest questions shaping our financial futures—and the world around us.

In this episode, Jeff and Jake unpack the latest economic data with their signature clarity, diving into inflation trends, consumer spending patterns, the role of interest rates, and how markets are reacting. They break down recent shifts in government spending, discuss the Fed's next potential moves, and explain how economic indicators can tell very different stories depending on who's reading them. It’s a thoughtful, often surprising look at where the economy might be headed—and what it means for your wallet.

If you want smart financial talk without the jargon, and insight that makes you think (and sometimes laugh), you’re in the right place.
