Today signifies the beginning of the Lenten season for Christians. It&#8217;s also National Random Act of Kindness Day! Always remember, &#8220;No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.&#8221; -Aesop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you guys remember that movie,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0113957\/?utm_campaign=CEO%20Daily%20Update%20-%202.17.2021%20%28WED4Tq%29&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=ceo_email&amp;_ke=eyJrbF9jb21wYW55X2lkIjogIlA5dmRLSiIsICJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJrb25hcnNraWFzaGxleUBnbWFpbC5jb20ifQ%3D%3D\">The Net<\/a>, with Sandra Bullock? It was a 1995 release about a computer analyst who gets caught up in some underground government stuff when she tries to debug a computer program (stored on a 3.5-inch floppy disk no less) and sees something she shouldn&#8217;t. It was pretty good, just not a film that aged well with the tech being so outdated now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s a funny phenomenon here in our household with movie memory. Craig can recall lines from movies he&#8217;s seen years ago. If it was funny, it is even more likely he remembers it. Don&#8217;t ask him what he had for dinner two nights ago, how long we&#8217;ve been married, or where that paper he brought home yesterday&nbsp;&#8211; but if you need a movie quote, he&#8217;s your guy. Me, on the other hand, I retain more than the average information about daily life. Phone numbers, account numbers, where to find a copy of the deed to that house we owned in 2001 &#8211; no worries, I&#8217;ve got you. But if you ask me about a movie I saw last month, I am not very likely to remember that &#8220;really funny part&#8221; that Craig so easily recalls. It is like my brain has decided movies are non-important information and must not be stored in long-term storage. Anyone else like this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All that to say, I have been reminded several times recently of this movie from 1995. I didn&#8217;t remember too many details about it until I watched the trailer just now, but I did remember that Sandra Bullock&#8217;s character was basically a recluse. She only left her house very occasionally and even had her groceries and food delivered. That&#8217;s nothing for us now, but my homebody self was pretty impressed with it back in the day. The times I have recalled the movie lately, I have kind of chuckled because I have become that girl. I leave the house once or twice a week, otherwise, you&#8217;ll find me homeschooling, at my computer, in the kitchen, or reading. Hopefully, no one sends me a 3.5-inch floppy with a secret program to decode\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chat with you tomorrow,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/a9caacc9-86d6-46e3-8b85-a5422f00fc93-1.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4157\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Product Spotlights and Updates: <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/accessories\/voip\/yealink-ehs36\/pro-19001\/?utm_campaign=CEO%20Daily%20Update%20-%202.17.2021%20%28WED4Tq%29&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=ceo_email&amp;_ke=eyJrbF9jb21wYW55X2lkIjogIlA5dmRLSiIsICJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJrb25hcnNraWFzaGxleUBnbWFpbC5jb20ifQ%3D%3D\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1-1024x330.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1-1024x330.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1-300x97.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1-768x247.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1-1536x494.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/f974da7f-179b-42c3-ac98-3e962ee872ad-1.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today\u2019s spotlight brings you to the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/accessories\/voip\/yealink-ehs36\/pro-19001\/?utm_campaign=CEO%20Daily%20Update%20-%202.17.2021%20%28WED4Tq%29&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=ceo_email&amp;_ke=eyJrbF9jb21wYW55X2lkIjogIlA5dmRLSiIsICJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJrb25hcnNraWFzaGxleUBnbWFpbC5jb20ifQ%3D%3D\">Yealink EHS36 Wireless Headset Adapter.<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This unobtrusive device allows you to connect your Yealink phone to a wireless headset.

But while we\u2019re all for building up a cash cushion, saving your refund for a rainy day may not be the best way to get ahead financially this year\u2014especially if you\u2019re still in debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other folks from the survey (34%) planned to use at least part of their tax refund to pay off debt.3 Based on the average American household debt totals, we ran some numbers to find out what would happen if you used your entire refund to pay down your debt. We knew the results would be positive, but you may be surprised by how much you could actually save with this one simple step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Crush Debt Faster with your Tax Refund&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Student Loans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The average student loan balance is more than $35,000.4 Let\u2019s say your balance is $35,000 at a 6% interest rate. With a monthly payment of $400, you\u2019ll pay on that student loan for around 10 years and shell out more than $46,000 total in principal and interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s say you put your $2,500 tax refund toward your student loan balance. Using a student loan payoff calculator, you can see that doing this will help you pay off your loan almost a whole year sooner and save more than $1,800 in interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, let\u2019s take things a step further. A $2,500 tax refund doesn\u2019t mean you hit the jackpot. It\u2019s simply the government returning your money\u2014money you could have been using all year long to pay extra on your debt. Don\u2019t wait until next year to get your money back. Work with a tax advisor to adjust your withholding today so you can bring home an extra $200 a month ($2,500\/12), starting with your next paycheck!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use that $200 to pay extra each month on the remaining balance of your student loan debt. With this method, you\u2019ll pay it off in about five years instead of 10. And you\u2019ll save over $5,500 in interest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s how you put a tax refund to work! Here\u2019s how that same scenario can work on your other debts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Credit Cards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Households with debt currently owe an average of more than $14,500 in credit card debt.5,6,7 Yikes! At the minimum payment of 4% of the balance, and with a 15% interest rate, it\u2019ll take you 13 years to pay that off. But if you apply $2,500 to the balance when you get your refund check and add that $200 to your monthly payment after adjusting your withholding, you\u2019ll knock that sucker out in no time and save yourself thousands of dollars in interest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Car Loans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest research shows that the average used car loan is almost $21,000 at a nearly 10% interest rate.8 Most people finance their cars for five years, although the average term is creeping toward six. With your one-time $2,500 payment followed by your increased monthly payments of $200, you\u2019ll pay off your wheels two years sooner and save nearly $3,000 in interest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Home Loan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As home prices continue to rise around the country, the average mortgage balance has swelled to over $202,000.9 Using our mortgage payoff calculator, you can see that with your tax refund and an increased monthly payment of $200 (from your newly adjusted withholding), you\u2019ll pay off your home nearly three years early and save more than $12,500 in interest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Roll Your Tax Refund Into Retirement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As long as you have at least $1,000 in a starter emergency fund, there\u2019s no reason not to use your tax refund to pay down your debt. For those of you who are out of debt and have three to six months of expenses saved for emergencies, use our investment calculator to see how your tax refund can do great things for your retirement account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With an initial investment of your $2,500 tax refund followed by monthly contributions of the $200 you gained after adjusting your withholding, you could add nearly $789,000 to your nest egg over 30 years! That\u2019s a total of almost $75,000 of your money and more than $714,000 of growth. This is one simple way to catch up if you\u2019re feeling behind on your retirement savings goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.daveramsey.com\/blog\/what-do-i-do-with-my-tax-refund?utm_campaign=CEO%20Daily%20Update%20-%202.17.2021%20%28WED4Tq%29&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=ceo_email&amp;_ke=eyJrbF9jb21wYW55X2lkIjogIlA5dmRLSiIsICJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJrb25hcnNraWFzaGxleUBnbWFpbC5jb20ifQ%3D%3D\">article<\/a>\u00a0is from the Dave Ramsey blog.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Today&#8217;s News to Start Your Day:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"182\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1bae6288-df1b-4a09-b54c-4114ffde9861-1-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4111\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1bae6288-df1b-4a09-b54c-4114ffde9861-1-2.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.cablesandkits.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1bae6288-df1b-4a09-b54c-4114ffde9861-1-2-300x91.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>As of this morning, in the US, there are 9,401,811 active COVID cases, 18,479,418 have recovered and there have been 499,991 deaths.\u00a0<\/li><li>Japan launched its coronavirus vaccination campaign Wednesday, months after other major economies started giving shots and amid questions about whether the drive would reach enough people quickly enough to save the Summer Olympics, already delayed by the pandemic.
