Summary

These days, things feel more uncertain than ever. Take the economy, for example. By almost any objective measure, we’re doing much better economically than we were three years ago, but the vibes are… off. So, what’s going on? For one, we’re still bouncing back from astronomically high prices due to inflation in 2021 and 2022. Mortgage rates are also at their highest levels in more than 20 years making it really difficult to buy a house. But while all of this uncertainty in the world may feel bad, uncertainty itself isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Maggie Jackson, author of Uncertain: The Wisdom and Wonder of Being Unsure says making hard decisions when we really don’t know the outcome is actually really good for our brains. Listen in to hear how uncertainty is important to lean into when we’re deciding where and how to invest our money. Join the HerMoney community!
