Can younger investors really afford to invest on their own? For many, financial help from their parents may be making the difference.

Lance Roberts and Jonathan Penn discuss the growing financial support parents provide adult children and what it can mean for both generations. Helping with housing, bills, and everyday expenses may give younger adults more room to save and invest, but what does that assistance mean for Mom and Dad's own retirement plans?

Plus, we examine the latest economic and Treasury-market discussion, what interest rates and government borrowing could mean for investors, and how artificial intelligence may be changing retirement planning beyond the stock market.

It's a conversation about investing, family finances, retirement planning, and the financial trade-offs that can occur when one generation helps support another.
