Every time you buy a stock, you tell yourself a story about why it's going to work. But what if that story is the most dangerous thing in your portfolio? And what if the same behavioral blind spots that trip up individual investors are also quietly undermining the companies you're betting on? Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Harvard-trained behavioral scientist Julia Dhar, author of How Change Really Works, about why 60 to 75 percent of corporate transformations fail, how to spot false alignment in a leadership team, and the simple framework that separates companies worth owning from ones that just sound good on an earnings call.

Tax rates are as low as they've been in decades. Yet due to ballooning government deficits and increasingly underfunded entitlements, it's reasonable to have a hedge against higher tax rates in the future. One way to protect your retirement from higher taxes is to have at least some money in Roth accounts. With the Roth, contributions aren't tax-deductible, but withdrawals are tax-free… but only if you follow the rules, which can be complicated. Robert Brokamp explains what you need to heed.Also in this episode:-The Social Security time bomb ticks louder with the recent release of the latest trustees report-Americans are keeping their cars longer than ever, which is saving them money -- and changing the automotive industry-The earnings of companies in the S&P 500 are soaring, but some of that impressive growth is not actually due to business operations-Healthier people tend to be wealthier, and a recent study finds that riding a bike can provide all kinds of physical and psychological benefitsHost: Robert Brokamp, CFP®, EAEngineer: Bart Shannon Disclosure: Advertisements are sponsored content and provided for informational purposes only.

The fool can beloved or not. Beloved fools are open-hearted and cultivate “don't know” mind. Not-so-beloved fools think they know something, or know better, or are better. What I can see, so far, is that takes courage and fortitude to watch closely enough, over a long enough period of time (maybe a lifetime?), to see when foolishness is taking a beloved form, and when not. And to be humble when “not.” Which in my own investigation is *not* as infrequently as I'd like. Have you done this yet? If not, that's today's invitation. Take a look, now and for as long as you can. Playfully and joyfully, but also with diligence. See what you see. See when your own fool is beloved and when not. Decide what to shift. Have fun with it. See how it goes.
Oracle's earnings results made one thing abundantly clear, the spending rate for data centers and AI infrastructure isn't slowing down any time soon. While the market didn't respond too favorably to the announcement it was increasing its capital spending for the upcoming fiscal year, there is likely a long list of companies that will benefit.

Today on Christian Music Guys, we're excited to welcome Rush of Fools—a powerhouse band out of Birmingham, Alabama, whose impact on Christian music has spanned nearly two decades. Known for their breakout hit “Undo,” which dominated Christian radio in 2007, along with songs like “When Our Hearts Sing,” “Lose It All,” and “Grace Found Me,” their music has consistently pointed listeners back to the heart of the Gospel. With a name rooted in 1 Corinthians 1, Rush of Fools has always carried a message of humility and surrender, and now they're bringing that same passion in a fresh way with their brand-new project, Live in Gatlinburg, available now.@rushoffoolschristianmusicuys.com@christianmusicuys

Episode 993 of The Professional Left finally arrives at the pivotal year of 2008 — the moment the Republican party began eating itself alive — and traces exactly how a party that had just driven the country into a ditch decided that the best response was to sabotage the guy trying to pull it out. Driftglass and Blue Gal walk through the deliberate, coordinated Republican strategy to destroy Barack Obama before he even got started, complete with the death panels lie, the "government takeover" lie, and the racist conspiracy theory that a reality TV con man would ride all the way to the White House. Mitt Romney makes a long, painful, and very instructive appearance as the man who tried to straddle a party that was already too broken to straddle, rewriting his own book along the way to prove it.If you've ever wondered exactly how America got from the wreckage of the Bush years to the rise of Trump, this episode lays out the trail.Stay in Touch!
