We don't like talking about money - especially among family. But family finances are the most important finances in our lives, so breaking through those barriers can unlock a lot of opportunity and prevent a lot of stress down the road. Financial advisors Luis Rosa, Anna N'Jie Konte and Denise Zapata get up close and personal at the SER Latino Summit in La Jolla to talk about the most challenging conversations they have with their clients, how to break the cycle of debt, and how to teach the power of investing and compounding to communities that have little faith in the financial system. Plus, the stock market keeps making record highs as this bull market celebrates its second birthday. The good news for investors is how young this bull is, historically speaking, and how balanced this rally has become.

Nathaniel Popper joins The Express to talk about his latest book, "The Trolls of Wall Street: How the Outcasts and Insurgents are Hacking the Markets", and explains the origins of meme stock explosion which actually took root during Occupy Wall Street, and made their way through online forums like 4chan where throngs of disillusioned young men found community in the stock market. Popper draws the through-line from the Great Financial Crisis through the birth of Robinhood, Reddit and ultimately wallstreetbets, where trolling is the language of trading. If you thought this community of traders went away with the pandemic - think again. They are here to stay, and that could be good news for all investors.

Professor Teresa Ghilarducci, a labor economist and retirement expert at The New School for Social Research, has been arguing for years that the 401(k), which was never intended to be the primary retirement savings vehicle for most American workers, only helps high earners and is riddled with misaligned incentives. She joins The Express to make the case for a new government sponsored retirement savings account that she says is more equitable and provides a pathway to allowing workers to not run out of money once they stop working. Plus, new record highs keep coming for the stock market, but by all accounts, this bull market is pretty tame.
