When couples disagree about Federal Reserve policy impact on family finances

My wife and I fundamentally disagree about whether the Fed's current monetary policy is helping or hurting our retirement planning, and it's affecting every financial decision we make from our mortgage refinancing to how we're investing our kids' college funds. She thinks we should be much more conservative given potential rate changes, but I believe we're missing opportunities by being too cautious.
