Great Ways to Spend Your Income Tax Refund

April 25, 2012

Great infographic from our friends over at MintLife.Frankly, I love it. It guides you through a flow chart (Joel said it was a decision matrix, but I’m old, so I’ll go with flow chart), which asks a series of questions and then lands you on the perfect way to spend your tax refund.I actually owed the IRS money this year, so this isn’t for me. But several of my coworkers said they got fat refunds, so they should check this out. My favorite way in the flow chart that a person could use their refund? By doing a mortgage refinance and using the refund toward their closing costs. Love it.
