The Daily Money
 
Monday, October 10

It's Medora Lee with the Daily Money headlines to start the week off in the know.

If you're off for Indigenous People's Day, take some time to read why former Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke won the Nobel Prize in economics.

Did you know he studied the Great Depression to learn how bank failures led to economic devastation? Before, people thought bank collapses were a result, not a cause, of economic downturns. He used that as the basis for revitalizing the American economy after the 2007-2008 financial crisis.

Jerome Powell, call them.

Aside from that, here are the basics of Medicare that you should know to prepare for the open enrollment that begins Oct. 15: When does Medicare open enrollment take place? Here's what to know when picking your plan.

Where you live can determine what you pay for gas. As major oil-producing countries plan to slash production, U.S. gas prices may rise again, with some states potentially feeling the brunt more than others.
