Motley Fool Money - The Many Reasons to Roth, and How Long You’ll Live

When saving for retirement, the first decision is how much. But the next decision is where: Do you contribute to a traditional retirement account or a Roth? By far, the majority of retirement assets are in traditional accounts, but that may not be the right choice for you. Motley Fool retirement experts Robert Brokamp and Dan Caplinger discuss five reasons why you might want to go with the Roth.

Also in this episode:


-Life expectancy is a crucial variable in retirement calculations – what should you assume?
-The ratio of household wealth to income is at an all-time high
-Almost 1 in 4 adults provide financial support to aging parents, often to their detriment
-Aim to max out your retirement accounts in 2025, but don’t wait until Dec. 31 – especially with 401(k)s

The Gist - David Ignatius on Space Wars, Skepticism, and His Father’s Legacy

Mike Pesca revisits his conversation with Washington Post columnist and novelist David Ignatius, recorded before the recent passing of Ignatius's father, former Navy Secretary Paul Ignatius. They discuss the future of warfare in space, why the U.S. Space Force deserves more credit than it gets, and how a century of Pentagon experience shaped a lifelong skepticism toward military overconfidence. Plus, a Spiel on a government shutdown that achieved very little beyond irritating everyone involved.

The Daily Signal - The Daily Signal Presents “The “Signal Sitdown – What Trump Is Doing to End the Slaughter of Christians in Nigeria | Rep. Riley Moore

The horrific slaughter of Christians in Nigeria has caught the attention of President Donald Trump and the United States government.


Trump has tapped Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.V., to provide a report about the situation unfolding in Nigeria, where estimates place the number of slaughtered Christians well over 50,000 since 2009, with more than 7,000 of these deaths having occurred in 2025 alone. 


In Congress, Moore was one of the first voices drawing attention to the intensifying atrocities committed against Christians in Nigeria, and he joins ⁠“The Signal Sitdown”⁠ this week to discuss.


“Nigeria is the most dangerous countries on the face of the planet to be a Christian,” Moore told ⁠The Daily Signal.⁠ “This has been happening for a very long time, and it's getting worse and worse and worse every year.”
