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.

Host: Rachel Warren

Guest: Julia Dhar

Producers: Bart Shannon, Lauren Budabin

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
