SPRING INTO SAFETYYARDWORK

DOESN’T HAVE TOBE A PAIN

SS pring is here. It’s warmer outsideand you have big plans for theyard. You may be anxious to get

started but take your time. All of thatlawn and garden work can mean troubleif you try to do too much, too fast anddon’t take a few precautions. .

Spring is prime time for the aches andpains that can come along with yardwork. You can survive and still have agreat looking lawn if you take a few pre-cautions:

• Take your time. Split your big projectinto smaller ones and don’t expect to getit all done in one weekend.

• Stretch before you begin. Your backand muscles will love you for it.

• Lift heavy objects properly. Keep themclose to your body, bend your knees,keep your back straight and let your legmuscles do the lifting. Get help if some-thing is too heavy to lift alone.

• Use well made, long handled tools tomake yard work easier and ease thestrain on your body.

• Take frequent breaks and stay hydrated.

Matthew DuniganEdward Jones Financial AdvisorContributing View Columnist

NN ot everyone gets one, but it’s always a welcome sight —a tax refund. If you receive a refund this year, how canyou best put it to work?

The answer depends, to a large extent, on the size of your refund. In 2012, the average tax refund was about $3,000,

according to the IRS. Let’s look at a few possibilities for how you might use thisamount:

• Help fund your IRA — In 2013, you can now put in up to $5,500 per year (up from $5,000 in 2012) to a traditional or Roth IRA. And if you’re 50 or older,you can put in an additional $1,000 per year above the new contribution limit.Consequently, your $3,000 refund could cover more than half of your maximumIRA contributions, or slightly less than half if you’re 50 or older. And if you don’tthink that $3,000 would make much of a difference, consider this: If you investedthe $3,000 in an IRA that earned a hypothetical 7 percent annual return, and younever put in another dime, you’d end up with nearly $23,000 after 30 years. And if you put in that same $3,000 per year to your IRA — well below the maxi-mum — every year for 30 years, earning that same 7 percent annual return, you’d accumulate more than $303,000. (Keep in mind that you’d eventually betaxed on your traditional IRA earnings; Roth IRA earnings grow tax-free, provided you meet certain conditions.)

• Pay off some debts — In the last few years, Americans have done a prettygood job of lowering their individual debt loads, according to the Federal Re-serve. But if you still have some outstanding loans or a credit card balance thatcarries a high interest rate, you might want to consider applying your tax refundto these debts. The lower your monthly debt payments, the better your cash flow— and the more money you’ll have available to invest for your future.

• Help build an emergency fund — Life is full of unexpected events. If youneed to purchase a new furnace or pay for an expensive car repair or incur a hospital bill, will you have the money available? If you don’t, you might be forcedto dip into your IRA or other investments. This move could result in taxes andfees; more importantly, it will reduce the financial resources you’re counting onto help meet your long-term goals. You can help avoid this problem by buildingan emergency fund containing six to 12 months’ worth of living expenses, kept ina liquid, low-risk account. Your tax refund could give you a nice start to this fund.

• Invest in a 529 plan — If you have children (or grandchildren) whom you’dlike to send to college, you may want to invest in a 529 plan. Your earnings growtax-free, provided withdrawals are used for qualified higher education expenses.(Withdrawals for other purposes will result in taxes and possible penalties.) Contribution limits are quite high, so you can put in significant amounts eachyear — including a $3,000 tax refund.

As you can see, you’ve got some attractive options for using your tax refund —so consider them carefully. If you can apply more resources to your various financial goals, you may find yourself in a better position in the future.
