Got Big Plans for Your Tax Refund? You're Not Alone
Wednesday, April 17, 2024
WASHINGTON , April 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- With nearly 106 million individual income-tax returns resulting in refunds in 2023, a significant number of Americans are already pondering how to use their additional funds. As the Wall Street Journal reported, this year's average refund is a little over $3,100. If you are contemplating where to allocate this unexpected money, take a moment before embarking on your spending spree to explore innovative ways to make the most of your money.
1. Pay down debt. According to LendingTree, nearly 40% of Americans use
their tax refunds to stay afloat, whether tackling credit card debt or
staying ahead on loan payments. Pay off some of that existing debt and
rest easy knowing you're taking steps towards your financial security.
2. Prepare for unexpected expenses by building up your emergency savings.
While the latest gadgets may tempt you, prioritize your future by saving
a portion of your refund and let compound interest work its magic.
3. Plan for tomorrow by boosting your retirement savings. The tax benefits
of saving for retirement are substantial. Consider contributing a portion
of your paycheck to your employer's 401(k) plan, especially if they offer
a matching contribution or moving your refund into an Individual
Retirement Account (IRA).
4. Protect your loved ones by investing in permanent life insurance. Don't
wait until it's too late to safeguard your family's financial security;
securing coverage while you're young and healthy can save you money in
the long run. Even more, a recent study by Ernst and Young showed that
Americans with a holistic financial plan that includes permanent life
insurance, investments, and annuities have better returns than those who
don't have a holistic plan.
Remember, everyone's financial situation is unique. Don't hesitate to seek guidance from a professional. We highly recommend consulting a holistic financial security professional (FSP) when crafting your financial plan. A reliable FSP, preferably one affiliated with Finseca, can assess your circumstances, offer clarity on available options, and tailor a comprehensive strategy that aligns perfectly with your needs.
